Re: I see it like this said by AMDonUT2004:so there going to charge us for filters to our email, next with vista they are going to start charging us to do updates to our computers.. what's next? charging people for a new email accounts maybe?  Unless you are a business sending out bulk email to potential customers(AKA Spam), YOU are not going to pay anything. The only people paying will be businesses who sometimes get caught up in ISP email spam filters. To avoid those filters, they must be verified as legitimate businesses and then be willing to pay a small fee to make sure their marketing ads are GUARANTEED to bypass ISP spam filters. There is potential for abuse, as ISP's tighten spam filters to such a degree that most big businesses will pay the fee.
But it will cut down on most spam due to the tightened ISP spam filters.
And maybe some businesses will raise their rates to pay the fees out of increased marketing budgets.

To the ISP they have no way of determining the difference between a popular newsletter and a common spam message...

No they will be handled by your existing spam filters (or not if you have allowed the sender) as they are today. Goodmail simply allows the bypass of the filter. |
