Our concern is the use of seriously flawed technology to filter electronic mail.

Food for thought...
How many bulk mailers would be looking for a new line of work if email service providers simply prevented more than one message from being sent by any given account within 60 seconds?
Sending even 1000 messages would take a very long time.
One minute would not interrupt most individuals writing personalized emails to their friends or replying to their customers. Provisions could be easily made for a proven legitimate need to send more.
Many email service providers even offer free tools to create lists and send mail in bulk. Limits are set so high and fees for exceeding them so low , is it any wonder SPAM has become the problem it is today?
