I'm of the opposite thinking. I'd rather sort
through a bunch of spam everyday rather than miss
1 important message. If I miss 1 inquiry it could
cost me 1000s of dollars. Spam is an annoyance,
nothing more. There is no sense cutting off your
nose to spite your face.
People with challenge systems crack me up. They
wonder why they don't get their receipts when
they order things, or why they miss important
automated correspondence about their orders.
