I still think that the only way to beat spam will be the Penny Post.

So, spammers can successfully get around whitelists, blacklists, greylist, beysian filters can take over people's IPs, machines, networks, and even trick YOU into doing their CAPTCHA work for them.

But the e-pennies, well, they won't figure out a way to steal legitimate users' pennies to send spam.

The spammers will have it figured out in a week, grandma will be stuck with a $10,000 email bill, and the rest of us will be paying to email for no reason.
