I encounter many sites that now refuse free email addresses. That
alone is a practical reason to use a paid email or paid ISP.
I don't expect the free ISP concept to live much longer. Look at
NetZero's share price. They are in danger of delisting by nasdaq
soon.

Yes, that is our intention.

Free email addresses are virtually untraceable. You can provide
totally fraudulent information when signing up with most of them.
That is unacceptable for our purposes.
