In Response To: Re: Taking action against spam part 1 (Brian Nystrom)

: A couple of points: - Junk faxes are illegal, since they cost the sender
: essentially nothing, but the recipient pays for the material to print the
: fax. Email is essentially the same situation, since the recipient pays for
: it in the increased cost of internet access and ISPs pay for it due to the
: increased costs of the bandwidth necessary to accommodate it. There is NO
: reason that spam should be legal when junk faxes are banned.

: - Junk mail has not been banned, since it's the sender that pays all costs
: for the mailing. The recipient either reads it or tosses it. One could
: argue that there are disposal costs involved, but it's not a very
: convincing argument.

Why doesn't someone design a program so we could "Return To Sender" all the unsolicited E-Mail without opening it??? Then we could bury them with their own crap!! They'd need a really BIG bulk mail folder! Just a thought (which I've never gotten paid for)

Anyway, Happy Yakin'

Charles.
