            eh.. there is some points in what he says.. A system where you have to do a math problem or something like that that would take you say 30 seconds and would credit you for 200 emails sent or whatever wouldn't be bad at all. If it meant getting rid of 80% of the spam out there then fuck yea I would be all over that like a fat kid on a smartie

                "Instead of paying a penny, the sender would "buy" postage by devoting maybe 10 seconds of computing time to solving a math puzzle. The exercise would merely serve as proof of the sender's good faith."


                So what about people who legitimately need to bulk email THEIR CLIENTS?

                  Take GFY for instance...

                  lets say there are 25,000 registered users that Lensman mails DAILY.

                  at a penny per user, that would be $250.00 per day to send out the GFY daily newsletter.

                  If he has to spend $250 a day sending out that newsletter, maybe that means no more daily camera thread - among other things.

                      Probably not going to work since if it becomes a GLOBAL standard then countries with very low exchange rates would get fucked.

                              I cann't see that working. Who is going to be the Email Post Office that will sell these stamps. How do I go about getting my stamp money from each email sent to me. Spammers would find away to get past the system anyway. It would mainly just cost legitimate email users while letting the spammers use tactics that will get past these pay systems for free.
