“The real benefits of email postage compared to other money-based solutions is that it’s broad-based and fair (no one has to worry about following a different system to anyone else, which is a nice equalising property of the Internet that’s worth retaining, and there aren’t areas for big businesses to position themselves so they can extort money from users); that it is implementable entirely at the endpoints (you just need to upgrade mutt or Outlook, you don’t need to change ISPs), that it’s flexible (you can change the fees you expect depending on who the mail’s from, who it’s to, or what it’s about), and it has very few external costs (you don’t need to reimplement the internet, you don’t need to create a new police taskforce, or put more cases through the courts, or add lots of new restrictions to ISPs — basically it has the property when people don’t follow the rules, you just don’t get their mail, you don’t get hurt and have to seek a remedy).”
