> Libby, we're OK - 602P is a hoax. It crops up every now and then...

It would have to be a hoax, it would be impossible to effectivly charge
anyone for e-mail, and what e-mails would be effected by it and which
wouldn't.  You can really say ALL outgoing e-mails get a charge because of
the amount of e-mail relays and system messages and listservs like the one
we are one.  All the relays would have to go away because you can't really
afford to get charged twice just for a little easy of use, and this list
serv would have to go away as well.  We already pay for the bandwidth and
haveing to pay for all the messages that go out as well would be murder.
Each message would cost us about $2.50 to send out and around $375.00ish a
month just to mantain a list.  That's way too much to spend on something
that is just a hobby.  We would have to switch to a message board.  Which
is pretty much the same thing but would get around a tax.

Oh well, I have now spent waaaay too much time on a fake stupid subject.
I hope it's at least a partially interesting rant :)
