AOL claims that mail from non-spammers will continue to be delivered. But that inherently contradicts its other statements, for a simple reason: If mail from non-spammers can get through, then who is going to pay for Goodmail?

AOL, Yahoo, and Hotmail do a real good job of flagging bulk or commercial email as spam, regardless of whether or not its unsolicited and apparently without regard to things like SPF compliance. If you have a financial interest in having that email not get flagged as spam, you'll pay. If you don't have the means to pay, you're fucked.
