Actually Bill Gates idea is not that every user pays postage. It is =
that
for a user to send mail, he/she post a small postage (think bond) fee. =
If
the note turns out to be spam, the receiver gets this fee. If the note =
is
legitimate, the send keeps the fee.
=20
I might be willing to put up with spam at 15 cents (just a guess) or so
charge. It only takes about 1 second for me to hit delete. That is a =
pay
rate of a little over $500 per hour. Given that payment, I would be =
willing
to get all the spam in the world. I could quit my job and just get spam =
all
day.

we don't pay postage on email? I thought we did... it is called a =
monthly
charge to a provider such as First Step.
A "per email" charge would sure cut down on spam I bet.
