Hi folks, The bill before Congress to chare for email use is a hoax. This thing has gone around 3-4 times over the last three years. I just did a search on Bill#602p and I discovered the following: "Don't get the idea that only those who believe in fairy tales can fall prey to the spammers' tricks. One widespread hoax that I suspect was started by a spammer was a message that warned of "Bill 602p," an alleged attempt by the U.S. Postal Service to get Congress to impose a 5-cent "alternative postage fee" on every e-mail delivered. Given all the proposals that have been made for the government to regulate and/or tax the Internet, I wondered if it might be true the first time I saw it, but there is no 602p.
