I'm not aware of any email system that delivers messages directly to 
people's eyeballs.   There are MSAs and message stores.

Or to put it differently, if people want to use an email system that 
delivers mail directly to their eyeballs, they're giving up one kind of 
spam filtering by making that choice.   Which might be a reasonable 
choice for some and not for others.
