so you want the ISPs to be reviewing the content of your emails and
applying an acceptable use policy? Interesting, China wants ISPs to do that
too, and the IETF and my company have been taking a fair bit of flak from
the civil liberties folks as a result. You might want to rethink that
position...
if a high percentage responded then their system would collapse or at
least become a lot more expensive to run.
Not really. They simply state that their return address is someplace that
doesn't exist (common), or is on some server other than their spam server
(also common). You can pound the ability to unsubscribe into the ground, or
ddos some unsuspecting system, but you'll never touch them that way.
