Email marketers will pay to beat ISPs' spam filters

Mar 17, 2004 11:59PM PST

Up to 40% of legitimate email marketing is filtered out by ISPs as spam, and never reaches the recipient's inbox. Email marketing firms told NMA they'd be prepared to pay a levy on commercial opt-in mailings, to protect their communications from ISPs' spam filters.
