I get very very little "obvious" email SPAM these days. I get a great deal of email from conference badge scans, retail that I've done business with, and a great number of other sources that I often/mostly don't care about but I'm not sure how you would algorithmically prevent outside of some labor-intensive and error-prone whitelist.

I'm sure some people would prefer to basically block email by default but that's not most of us.
