Re: Internet access -- sort of ...

I think my ISP does a good job because they do a combination of both. They let everything through, but pre-tag the email with spam-high, spam-medium, spam-low. That way I can easily configure filters. If they mis-tag an email no big deal, because I still get it, and alter my filters for it.

Re: Internet access -- sort of ...

Tagging is fine. Just discarding email isn't.

I just wonder how AOL subscribers will feel when they find that their favorite newsletter is discarded because the sender didn't pay AOL a fee to let it through.
