Abstract :
Spam wastes Internet processing, bandwidth, and storage. Like many other sociotechnical problems computing today faces, it´s not solvable by purely technical approaches like filters or social responses like passing laws. Channel e-mail offers a solution that can enable social as well as technical communication efficiency.
