No, they're not. They're a single response to a single message, maybe

Come on, we have a hard enough time trying to fight the real spammers,
folks listed on ROSKO, without such silly confusions of the issue.
Did you even read the web page? Point #6 - potential "joe-job" denial
of service. Say, for instance, C-R gets a penetration rate of 1%.
Someone then sends a spam with a valid e-mail address to a million
addresses. The return e-mail address will then end up receiving
100,000 C-R challenges. Tell me that's not bulk! If that's not bulk,
then I don't know what is.
