Can I use CustomMailer to send “spam”?
CustomMailer is a client-side tool designed for interactively selecting targeted groups of email recipients based on your criteria and sending them personalized, individual emails. Spammers generally send uniform messages to all recipients in large mailing lists. The bulk mailer tools they use are usually server-based and group large numbers of names in the to:, cc:, and bcc: fields or use group mail addresses in order to do large volume mailings. Though CustomMailer includes automated batch sending of multiple emails, it typcially sends messages one at a time through a single server, sending 2000 to 5000 messages/hour depending upon your Internet connection. Spammers send 10,000’s and even 100,000’s per hour, often using multiple servers at a time. If you want to spam, you probably want to use some tool other than CustomMailer. Also please note that the CustomMailer license does not permit unethical or illegal use, as may be the case for certain activities referred to as “spam”.
