I don't know what the fuss is about. Google is doing just enough, but could 
certainly do a lot more.

For example, it could pre-fetch all images referred to by incoming mail and 
then cache those. Then spammers would never know if the mail was read. Better 
still, it could rewrite image URLs to the Google cache, thus not giving away 
any information if the mail was forwarded or accessed via IMAPS.

The blogs by the spammers are interesting. They read like they believe they are 
conducting a legitimate business and seem outraged by any moves to restrict 
their actions.
