I built a side project to solve this for myself that’s basically an inbox toll system. It funnels emails from unknown senders into a hidden mailbox and auto replies to the sender with a payment link. After the sender pays, the email gets released to recipient’s main inbox. Recipient can set custom toll amounts, whitelist, etc.

Would be happy to share the code, just lmk!

I’m interested in seeing this too. Heh an agent will gladly pay a dollar of their human’s money if they can declare success.

Has anyone ever paid you?

The technical side of this seems easy enough. The human side, that seems more complicated.

Like, if I were your doctor or contractor or kid's schoolteacher or whoever you hadn't happened to already whitelist, and had sent you something important for you, and got that back as a response... I'm sure as heck not paying when I'm trying to send you something for your benefit.

Yeah, meanwhile a scammer will actually pay to have a seal of approval.

It's a great way to stop receiving anything that benefits yourself and only start receiving mail which could make the sender way more than $1
