Having read the entire article, I wonder if the head of the development team might have actually been correct - the author was an idiot.
After all, he writes an article about how to deal with an IT bully, and provides three strategies, none of which worked for him. How does this provide support for me to accept his expertise on the subject that he chose for his article?
I've always thought that a small charge for sending emails, even a small fraction of a cent, would be transparent to normal users but would put spammers out of business. The problem with spam is that spammers do not bear any cost for sending millions of emails. Make them bear a cost and they will disappear.
Bubbling along . . .

Perhaps a better analogy would be "If Microsoft is the USSR, Mac is Beverly Hills 90210."
