America Online and Yahoo, two of the world’s largest providers of e-mail accounts, are about to start charging companies a penny per email to guarantee that they bypass spam filters and get delivered.
Think of it like VIP junk mail.
In exchange for paying, email senders will be guaranteed their messages will not be filtered and will bear a seal alerting recipients they are legitimate.
Too bad I’m still sticking it all in my Junk folder unless AOL and Yahoo disable that too.
Bastards!
