Ewww!  *recoils in disgust*

"You don't pay to send, we make others pay to send to you." - if this
system become widespread, then you surely /would/ have to pay to send to
others.  In terms of spam prevention, this has no advantages over TMDA
that I can think of, but it seems like a bloody good way to piss off
people sending you sending you unsolicited but nevertheless legitimate
email[1].

Also, like TMDA and similar systems, it does nothing to help spam that
comes from e.g. Debian mailing lists.

person.
