Sorry........should have used simpler terms. Bandwidth refers to the amount of resources used to send E-Mail, etc. Obviously, it's limited and we have to pay for all the infrastructure we need to send all our E-Mails. When 1/3 or more of the infrastructure is used to support SPAM.....it's expensive. When you return SPAM, that just adds to the usage, or "bandwidth".
