Re: [Asrg] mail metering, was Spam, defined, and permissions

I can certainly believe that one could build a network that somewhat
resembled the Internet but that forced all the e-mail through a small
number of meter points.  But I have a lot of trouble seeing how you
could turn the real Internet into that Internet, and particularly how
you would pay for it.

As Phill most recently pointed out, the phone system is a completely
useless model here because it has a multi-billion dollar billing
infrastructure already in place, and the internal structure is quite
different.
