If you go along with a scheme that makes you pay for receiving mail
you don't want you have only yourself to blame.
It's like giving someone your credit card with the
4-digit PIN code. You are even more to blame for hiding
the fact that you don't want to receive messages from outside the BRD
inside a LOUD signature which everyone would skip. Put it at the
TOP of each message.
