I explained it in good detail in the previous post. The message I quoted implied that affiliates who mark such mailings as spam hurt sponsors because their other mailers to customers can get flagged as spam as a result. I pointed out that the affiliate has mostly been cut out of that mailer related revenue entirely in our industry since it is not usually shared with the affiliate these days even when they originally sent the lead in the first place. So what does the affiliate care whether your mailers get through to customers or not?

#2 I'm not even going to try to go into because it would hijack Porn Nerd's topic but you can probably guess where I am going from what I've already said.
