I wonder if they've ever considered what spam costs them. For example, in
terms of storage space for the spam until it's downloaded by the user and
the greater amount of time the user is on .their. phone line downloading
that spam.
I remember my father saying, when I was a child, that if steel mills
could save a half cent - we're talking forty years ago! - a ton in
production costs, the annual total would be significant because of the
tonnage produced.
So my download takes only a few seconds less. Multiply that by how many
Juno users?????? Especially when I've seen .dozens. of Juno only
addresses as multiple recipients and those only a tiny fraction of the
alphabet.
I still like my idea of being able to return spam to a specific Juno
address which would in turn send it back to the originator as "invalid
address". But .I. want to make the decision on what is spam and what
isn't. Not some automated program that says "Cash" in the subject is spam
when maybe I'm doing genealogy on a family named "Cash".
