I think ESPs and ISPs should know better and be setting a good example.

Publicity here may encourage others not to do the same thing.

How did a guy like that get past HR?
If you were running HR, could you filter out people like that?

How many places will post this thread above the water cooler?

Who was the ISP that spammed every email address they could find in their mail 
logs?  including people who were only in there because they had reported spam.

a row - that 1 was suddenly something to get angry about. Remember those 
days? But now - several years later - there is a building consensus that many

other such things that are causing sending-IP-DNSBLs as well as lists that

types of spams. Therefore - this is absolutely an "operational issue" -

Things that really grind my gears:
- Business practices or industries that engender abuse (looking at
you, payday loans)
- Sheer volume of abuse
- Ongoing abuse
- Ignoring reports of abuse

Things that don't really grind my gears:
- One email that is clearly irritating, not yet definitively bulk, not
clearly reported, and where it feels like the originating or
responsible entity hasn't been given a chance to investigate or
respond.

My spamtraps are full of lots of things, and none of them are
ActiveCampaign salespeople gone wild.

Sales people sending cold emails irritate me. I get way too much of it
at my new job. But it pretty much just about all lands in the spam
folder, because their model of B2B trickle sending from Gmail or
Outlook365 (or one of those crappy "cold email" sending platforms),
trying to drum up leads and getting few responses results in low
engagement and solid spam folder placement, that is darn near
unfixable because of its flawed design as a practicel. It is, in
short, not really an OPERATIONAL mail issue, and is darn near already
addressed from the ISP/MBP filer/reputation perspective, from my view,
so I typically wouldn't even wax poetic about it here on Mailop,
personally.

Re: [mailop] WTaF? I just got spammed BY Active Campaign

[Alex Burch via mailop]

This is definitely embarrassing for us (ActiveCampaign) and I appreciate
the call out Anne.

Fwiw, I can honestly say our abuse desk does respond to all cases there and
if you had sent it there they would have seen it and done something at the
least.

Still doesn’t justify the garbage out Marketing team was apparently sending
and I will be sure we address this internally.

Feel free to reach out off list Anne and I can help get to the bottom of
this. Same goes for anyone else who sees garbage coming from
ActiveCampaign. We try, but as we grow this just gets harder as many of you
probably know.

Did I mention that they put me on a mailing list, from which I could opt out if 
I didn't want to hear from them any more?

I dunno, Matt, I usually give a company some latitude, but when an ESP, for 
crying out loud, does the very same thing for which we hold them to task when 
their customers do it...kinda hard to excuse it.

It's worse than that, the spam is for *no* sort of business even remotely 
related to anything I do - it's for "my" Shopify store!  I've never had an

So far as I'm concerned, when an ESP transits spam, well, it doesn't necessarily mean

Hi Anne,

Your products and Shopify store look great. But great products and a nice 
looking website aren’t all that’s required to drive customer loyalty; you need 
to deliver a great customer experience.

ActiveCampaign’s industry leading customer experience automation (CXA) platform 
is used by over 130,000 businesses around the globe to:
• Ensure customers that visit your website get the same consistent 
experience across all channels including; email, social media, SMS and live 
chat.
• Automatically turn Shopify data into personalized communications that 
drive impactful results in a few clicks.
If you’d like to learn more about how companies like The Skin Research 
Institute have integrated ActiveCampaign with Shopify to achieve a 330% 
increase in sales in just five months, I’d love to chat further.

Thanks!

Hi Anne,

Your products and Shopify store look great. But great products and a nice 
looking website aren’t all that’s required to drive customer loyalty; you need 
to deliver a great customer experience.

ActiveCampaign’s industry leading customer experience automation (CXA) platform 
is used by over 130,000 businesses around the globe to: 
• Ensure customers that visit your website get the same consistent 
experience across all channels including; email, social media, SMS and live 
chat. 
• Automatically turn Shopify data into personalized communications that 
drive impactful results in a few clicks.
If you’d like to learn more about how companies like The Skin Research 
Institute have integrated ActiveCampaign with Shopify to achieve a 330% 
increase in sales in just five months, I’d love to chat further. 

Thanks!

Alex
