The idea sounds terrible to me. It will simply add to the flood of spam e-mail, and it will encourage the bigger players to abuse their mailing lists.

It actually works quite well but over the last few years it hasn't been accepted as main stream advertising but rather a secondary way to ensure every newsletter has the potential to be enhanced.

The thing I am most wondering about is how it knows what ads to display, since email is either online and password protected, or in a local folder on someone's computer.
