I don't like this idea, if for no other reason, I don't want to pay for
email. I'm already paying $50 a month for high-speed Internet, there's no
way I'm spending 25 cents an email.
Heh, heh. And the answer to this threat is simple: my ISP wants to
charge me $.25/email? Fine, but then they have to take *off* charges for
spam. Now, given my, um, 75? 150? spams/day, I'd be sending them the
spams to prove that they were spam, and unsolicited nor wanted.... I
can*not* see them dealing with that. <g>
