No Blacklist – it’s easy to spam unlimited

I can put in someone’s email, send, annoy him, and the site owner – and possibly raise his spam score and ruin his reputation…

I tried to enter that email in the DB and assign it to a dummy group “Blacklist” (which would never send any newsletters).
This doesn’t work as there is the “Group bug”, described in my previous post.
And as far as I see there’s zero protection against mass sending confirmation emails, i.e.:

– A limit of how many requests an IP can do per hour.
– A total limit of how many requests ESN accepts per hour.
– A message “Already subscribed”, if the email is already subscribed.
– A message “Confirmation Email has been sent x minutes ago”, instead of immediately sending it again.
