How does your model enforce that spammers pay (and not the owners of

Why shouldn't the owners of zombied machines pay for their
negligence?

They should.  But at the suggested prices, they won't notice, and
nothing will happen except that a lot of people pay an extra
<$1/month.  How does that help me?

An email postage scheme might make some of them aware of the
problem, but only if postage is charged for every message.

And only if it's large enough to notice.
