Here's an idea ... why not make the google apps account free UNTIL you activate email ...
I don't need the google apps email but have to have the account to launch GAE appid So, in the billing system if the EMAIL is not activated then don't bill ... I bet that would solve most of the google apps account that are there just for GAE Can somebody from google update us when this google apps linkage will end ?
