There is a differace here.. Spammers don't pay to send out millions of emails, AOL pays the postage for each CD they send and also the manufacturing of the CD. Just like junk mail. The senders pay to have it mailed and printed. email Spammers pay nothing in most cases. they also steal bandwidth from other peoples networks by using open servers, forging headers, and using false from lines.. The ISP also has to pay for the bandwidth, storage, and hardware it takes to recieve the spam ( postage due).
I deal with this stuff for a living, I've heard it all...
