I think they are kind of missing the point.
Sure, a bunch of spam emails that most people can see through is not going to move the needle much, but the fact that the FBI released information to the public stating that Russia and Iran is actively trying to influence the election is what will have the bigger influence. It's more about causing distrust in the results rather than influencing the votes. Honestly, I think Trump is the only candidate that would benefit from the interference, and even more so by the FBI making it public. It also seems likely that it serves Iran's interests to cause as much doubt as they can on a Biden win. Trump generously let Iran out of their nuclear development restrictions that Biden helped implement when he was in the Obama administration after all.
