How about daily and weekly versions of New Follower email?
Not having the New Follower email for the past couple of days made me think about how often I need to know about new followers. I decided that getting an email alert seconds after someone starts to follow me is overkill and becomes a distraction, especially when the new follower is a spammer, which is about 50% of the time for me.
How about adding a consolidated version of that email with two options: weekly and monthly. Most discussion forums include this type of "digest'" option and I think it would work perfectly here.

Inappropriate?+1 Methinks the same principle can also be applied to direct messages. 8-)
I’m in a good mood

Inappropriate?Meant to say daily and weekly (not monthly), although I suppose monthly might work for some.

Inappropriate?I think this is the best solution to "follow spam" .... its actually something that I was going to post as an idea but mdoeff beat me to it :) I think the user should have the option, however. Basically in my settings tab I should be able to select whether I want instant notification or if I want a daily digest or a weekly digest.
Same COULD apply to direct messages but I think that would DEFINATELY have to be an option since many people rely on those emails for real-time communication. Also, it might be handy to add an "hourly digest" for the direct messages as well.
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?I'm forming a circle of agreement by agreeing with mdoeff after he agreed with me. :)

Inappropriate?I like the new follower email digest idea too. The spam is not so bad if it's only daily or weekly.

Inappropriate?I like this idea, and would like to see it implemented. Good job!
I’m hopeful that Twitter will do this
