I'm looking for research on the market for email spam, and how it profits its senders (not its recipients!). Has anyone done such research?
Clearly it is rewarding its organisers - the ones who compile and sell the lists and arrange the mailouts - but is it a profitable marketing approach if you actually have something to sell? And, just as interestingly, something to campaign about. (e.g. the provisional wing of a particular political campaign).
I'm not looking to start an exchange of opinions here; I'm hoping to find out if someone's done some solid research on the subject.
