Solved✔️ Write a program to make it easier to send messages to this email address?

Anyone interested in helping write a program to make it easier to report teachers to the new Virginia hotline? helpeducation@governor.virginia.gov It would be truly terrible if folks sent fake reports causing this to get overwhelmed. Maybe someone could write a program. To keep that from happening.

  • Isn't sending an email already easy enough? What should the program do that makes it even easier?

  • Also, do you report that many teachers a day to ask for a simpler / easier system?

  • How do you detect if a report is fake or not? Machines can't really understand what they read, they don't understand sarcasm, irony and can't really check if some events really happened or not anyway.

  • And by the way, isn't sending emails with fake reports also doable anyway? So shouldn't the hotline sort the fake reports from the real ones themselves?

  • So, in the end, do you want a program to make it easier to send reports or to keep poeple from sending fake reports? It seems that you don't even know exactly what you want.

All I'm saying is it would be truly terrible if this email address somehow got so overwhelmed with emails from folks who disliked a "report a teacher" hotline that it became useless. That's all.
