Would a spammer really care about damping?

It's a great tool for letting other sysadmins know somethings wrong  
with their system (ie, they would see their queues backing-up, and  
hopefully investigate why..)

But surely a spammer would "fire and forget"... Surely he wouldn't  
care if his spam took 10 seconds, 2 minutes, 1 hour, or even never  
arrives..

Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining about damping. I just see it  
fits into the "misconfigured mta" category more than the "spammer"  
category.. Or have I missed something?
