This has been my thinking too. When I make any purchase I am giving everything about myself away now. A long time ago I had the idea to create an 'accountability' e-mail server/credential generator that generated emails/credentials with unique ids along with a note about what it was used for so that you could see exactly who sold your info when you saw junk mail come in. There are now ways to do this but it is still a bit manual. It would be great to have this tied in with auto opt-out and auto reporting of abusers. Of course creating a personal e-mail server now is almost impossible.

Not really, I rented a box from hetzner and have ran mail-in-a-box for over a year now. The IP I was assigned was on the microsoft shitlist for a little bit, but I sent them an email explaining why I was using the server and they took me off the list. Also took a few emails to GMail to get off their spam filter, but a few emails to family and asking them to report not spam (around 3 emails) was all it took. The only server I've ever been rejected by is a corporate email server with very strict settings, but every other corporate email has been fine.
