I'd be surprised if anyone here doesn't know the "economics" you just
managed to spend about 3 pages of text explaining.

The basic idea you expressed seems to be repeated in every other
article about spam.

Tell us what you'd do with these insights instead of telling us yet
again that if 1 in 100 people respond to a spam that's a 1% etc., etc.
