    If you have admin portal access to write transport rules, I recommend writing a rule that has the server reply with a 550 5.7.1 Delivery Refused error. Trigger it based on the keyphrases “top of Google search” and “affordable SEO” to start with.

        If you want, you could use GMail filters to delete those emails automatically. Here’s how:

        1. click the engine button (settings), then “see all settings”, then “filters and blocked addresses”.
        2. click “create a new filter”. Add “top of Google search” to the field “has the words”, leave other fields blank.
        3. click “create filter”, then check the “delete it” box, then “create filter” again.
        4. repeat steps 2-3 for other shit that SEO spam is likely to mention.

        Important: never use as a filter anything that legitimate users might reasonably say. Only things that you’re fairly certain to come from a spammer.

        EDIT: I repeated two steps without noticing it. My bad.

          Damn, this is helpful. I (ops manager) just manually delete these as I see them, but I don’t always get to all of them in the main company inbox before the owner sees them and I sometimes have to field questions about “are you sure our SEO is good?” I’m going to set this up, lol.
