Around 2007, we had a site that was emailing ~500k/mo newsletters out for a half dozen clients. I could not convince my bosses that it had value and was worth investing in. It was merely an ancillary service to them, not worth promoting or monetizing. my bosses were pissed I wouldn't let them mass mail to all users without the clients permission. (these were the clients' lists). That didn't help. When the business broke, they didn't bother renewing the domain. Couple years later one of them asked me, informally, if I knew of a better email service than the one they were using now; it was charging them "postal rates"... "Can't help ya, so sorry."
