I don't even bother going as far as you, I have a rock bottom set of criteria they must pass before I'll do anything but mark it as spam:
1) Send it to the correct email address. Not my personal one, use what's on my resume.
2) Give some indication you've read my resume, such as mentioning a technology listed on it. Not something I've never included.
3) Something about the job. Anything at all, even just what city it's in.
That I can recall, only once has a recruiter passed. Kinda felt bad at turning down what seemed like the only recruiter who was competent at their job.
