It&amp;#x27;s not that we&amp;#x27;re looking the other way. It&amp;#x27;s that I wanted to design a system where we don&amp;#x27;t have to look at all. GMass doesn&amp;#x27;t actually send any emails through its own servers. Emails are sent either through users&amp;#x27; own Gmail accounts or through a third party SMTP service like SendGrid. Those actual email server operators (Gmail or SendGrid) have pretty sophisticated systems to detect spammers. THEY will shut down a user&amp;#x27;s account before I could ever even notice it. I don&amp;#x27;t have to look, because the owner of the email server will do the monitoring.</text><parent_chain><item><author>gk1</author><text>This product lets people send up to 10,000 emails[1] at once to a cold list of contacts (ie, not opted in).
