Perhaps we can start a discussion about the economic models
of spam control and various systems possible. Below is a quote
from section  1.7. of Dave Crocker's draft on spam control
mechanims

we can start off discussion with this:

One such system was presented at the ASRG meeting at IETF 56. The system is
called SHRED:  http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/03mar/slides/asrg-8.pdf. If
we are going to start a dicussion about cost-based systems, then we should
start we the thought that has been put into this proposal.

I agree.

According to our taxonomy, these approaches can be considered a form of
consent token or a response of charging after spam detection depending on
the use.

Which is why I am forwarding this suggestion.  It may also be appropriate to 
explore the synergism of 'filtering' and such a system.

Of course that would be apropos of the Filtering draft.
