I had this same idea as you, and I simply don’t see why people would pay to send emails when they’re already nearly free for most personal use cases. Businesses already pay to send email via third parties usually. Wouldn’t fake email signups get spammed to receive the sending fees from compromised email servers?
I could foresee a sending fee in the form of attention, with captchas for email sending, possibly attached to the outgoing email as metadata.
