Spamcop.net should not be compared to the extortionist sites, nor
the email vendors. It's honest, and living on a shoestring. The
others are cash cows for the inherently dishonest.<br>

And note that it's the _corporate email providers_ who charge money
to anyone who gets reported for spamming: that's why I used that
particular example.<br>
