I don't care who it is, they all spam box on every one of my email addys, Brazzers, RK, Twistys, Vivid, Wicked, you name it, spam box.
A few will get through here and there, but for the most part the big three are VERY VERY good at identifying adult mail in many different ways and they all bounce it or spam box it.
To get through, you have to be very, very tricky, AND have keys to all the big free email providers, which is what people use when they sign up to porn sites for the most part.
That's why I said it's a nice brand supporting activity that you can do with cancelled members.

Great post thank you! This was actually my feeling as well. I know many will offer discounts via emails, and I have tried that with little success. From a branding perspective I would think tubes with their millions of views would be better than emails.
I wasn't looking afor new revenue stream
per se, just that additional bump to boost a shitty sales week. LOL But that did not happen, and what you said about spending 10-20k...well, total agreement here.
And yet on Black Friday I get fifty thousand spam emails from PC Richard, Eddie Bauer and Macys. LOL!
