I want to clarify this a bit, before I get flamed (not that I'm not going to anyways). On Sat, 4 May 2002, Forrest W. Christian wrote:
The people in the middle would get *nothing* beyond what they are getting today.
Grandma would get 2c for each mail she received. Grandma would pay 2c for each email she sent. Where does that cause the problems you are talking about?
What I am *specifically* talking about is a situation where people who receive on average as many emails as they send don't pay ANYTHING above what they are paying now. We're trying to discourage bulk emailers, not individuals. - Forrest W.
