I don't think spam filters take this into account (in fact I don't see how they could). Since our mail server has started using spamassassin, I've had to put in procmail recipes to stop a large number of mail services I've opted into from being tagged as spam.
Well, spam filters don't yank accounts, ISP's do after they have received complaints by recipients that someone is sending out spam from their system. I was cautioning him before he gives advice on how to send out mass mailings to make sure that they have permission from the recipients. Or inevitably, complaints will follow and accounts will be cancelled, or IP's will get blacklisted. Usually fairly swiftly.
Ah right, I see what you mean. However, I doubt if any of the people on this particular list would complain to the ISP, they'd just mail him.
