> didn't opt-out, got on some list from a conference they attended

I would totally consider emails I received because of either of those things as spam. If I get an unsolicited email, it gets reported as spam regardless of the presence of an opt-out link. I wouldn't click any link in an email that came from someone I didn't opt into getting email from.
