Auto-delete all messages that contain the phrase "my client" and you'll eliminate 90% of spammy recruiter emails in my experience.

That's the goal, right? If the recruiter had an amazing, what you've always wanted kind of job for you, you'd probably want to hear about it. But if that were the case he'd take the time to find out what that opportunity looks like, and he'd probably just tell you the company instead of all the "my client" stuff.



Emails from lawyers also frequently contain the phrase "my client". You might not want to automatically delete those ones.
