I haven't had to deal with a single stick of spammed junk mail since I switched my email host to Gmail.  I also don't have to pay to get it to interract with Outlook, like I used to with hotmail.

I've never used Outlook for hotmail. I've always just typed in hotmail.com and it takes me to the sign in page. Then again, I  have several accounts at Yahoo, a couple at Lycos, another at MyWay, a cubs.com account, and my ISP provider accounts. It makes it easier to send out spam from multiple accounts.  :-)

I sort of agree with the DUmmie on taxing e-mail messages but not as a way to increase revenue but to decrease SPAM.

Imposing a minuscule $0.0001 tax on all outbound e-mail could do a lot to deter spammers.  As things are now a spammer will blast the same Cialis mail to 50 million addresses, 4 times a day seven days at very little cost.

If they have to start paying for blasting all that SPAM they'll either have to cut back or do some targeting of who they're sending the mail to.

My problem with this is it will serve as a backdoor for bureaucrats to tack on more taxes on internet usage....

i.e. Just check out the evolution of the income tax.  It was sold to the public as a "tax on the rich"....

Sir, you're hitting hardest, the two things that DUmbasses have in least abundance: brain cells and money.  What will they buy pot and Cheetos with if you tax all their money away?  Both quarters?   :-)

That's why I only charge them 5 cents/point of IQ below 100....

Any more, and it would cut into their pizza money....

The LA Dept of Revenue sold pot stamps for a few months. Stamp dealers were the only one that bought them. I wish I had bought some cause they are probably worth a pretty penny today.
