If we have this many security flaws now, what will it be like when microsux sends the majority of their programming jobs overseas? Kinda like... I know, lets have terrorist sympathisers write our crap! Good one(?)... Roger that Bill.
There already is a solution... It is called a digital signature and comes from a Certificate Authority. Couldn't ISP's, Yahoo, or even Hotmail be required to issue PKI certificates to a paying user? Email administrators would then have the option of dropping any email that wasn't digitaly signed (as coming from a legitimate CA). This digital signature would shed light on the responsible parties involved in sending SPAM. Then fines could be levied on the guilty parties. Screw the stamp people. I already pay for the privilage of sending email.
Digital Signatures are free!

Sounds like the rest of the world is only jealous of America... again. Go invent something cool yourselves. Oh, I forgot, the majority of these crybabies come from countries where freedom to invent anything doesn't exist.

Talk about lame! Our government deploys BillG's crap everywhere... Oh, I forgot, BillG is THE GOV'T.
