Send a higher amount for priority, to get attention from the receiver. If someone pays me 5 hive I will be happy to read their message even if it is a sales pitch. This is an attention economy and I would like to be rewarded for my attention
Perhaps a filter setting in the inbox, memos with less than 0.01 Hive go to the low priority box, higher transfers (voluntary, not fees) go to the urgent box?
The only downside to this is that we want a higher hive price so perhaps we dont want to make decentralized mail too expensive. 999 msgs for 1 hive is super cheap
I want to encourage users to use the messaging feature, at a mere cost of 0.001 hive per message to send a transfer, no fees. That's around 1-2 satoshis, and to earn some hive just write a story and earn some rewards, to use to send messages with a small Hive transfer. If I would like your priority attention I could send a larger amount. What if someone sent you a message with 250 Hive? You would probably want to reply to that message! The push payment feature of bitcoin is revolutionary but hive takes it a step further with working microtransaction ecosystem for sending messages at a very minor cost to the sender. This does prevent spam in a way because the sender has to pay for the msg like depositing a quarter in a payphone.
Consider how one sends a transfer with their memo, get paid to receive span.

Fair points, absolutely it is true.
What could make decentralized email better?
