What is a spam trap and why you should care

Spam traps are email addresses used to expose illegitimate senders who add addresses to their lists without permission, causing potential mail blockages. They come in various forms, including classic spam traps, seeded traps, recycled addresses, typo traps, and fake addresses. To avoid spam traps, senders should focus on explicit permission, confirmed opt-in processes, list management, engagement tracking, securing web forms, and promptly honoring unsubscribe requests.
