Right now I'm sat deleting bounceback after bounceback and spam after spam and I'm left with about 500 emails still that's after all the filtering I can do..

Scattered amongst them are my legitimate emails... This SUCKS... I would GLADLY pay to sort out this situation.

OMG... I've got it....!!!

What about an "opt-in" scheme whereby anybody that emails you HAS to pay a certain fee, maybe a cent an email, BUT if you decide that you wanted their email (for example, they are on your white list and or you click a certain button) they receive ALL of their money back for that message.

THAT is the solution my friends. OMG!

Think about it.

Your friend Jim emails you, costs him nothing. Big nasty shitty spammer emails you, it costs him a cent, or 10 cents or whatever. If he isn't a spammer, you can elect to return his money.

This way, the community would decide what emails were valid and valuable to them and those that didn't offer value - would have to be paid for by the sender!

I think that's a good idea. This issue needs debate!
