This could be fixed by restoring the 2000 email quota for emails sent
to admins of the app, and bumping up the price of the first X emails
sent to non-admins, with a  bulk discount for further usage.

Dreamhost gives you storage, bandwidth, memory etc for $9. On App
Engine $9 will buy you the opportunity to be further charged for
actual usage.  It's a regressive tax on startup projects, which
considering the effort made to offer a completely free tier, is self
defeating.
