    That shows the spammers were not only being spammers, they were
    ripping off their clients, saying they had sent 100,000 emails, when
    the vast majority would never been received, much less seen by a human.

    That's the "joy" of email
    advertising: economies of scale. Compared to the cost of mailing a
    flyer to every address in the US, email is effectively free. So you
    only get a 1% response rate, you're not out the printing and postage
    for the other 99%.
