What does hashcash do?
Hashcash comes in the form of plugin software for mailers which adds hashcash stamps to sent email.

The hashcash plugin software inserts a X-Hashcash: header into the email headers section of the email the user sends. The following is an example of an email addressed to me with a hashcash stamp in the email headers:
this is stupid. posting stamps doesn't work for everything you know HAHAA

What stops a spammer using hashcash?
Spammers can use hashcash too, however hashcash is bad news for spammers because the hashcash stamp takes your CPU some work to compute. To you as a normal user, with an entry level desktop or laptop class machine the CPU overhead per mail is negligible because you don't send that many mails; at worst your mail is delayed a few seconds before being sent on slow old hardware. However to spammers this is a show-stopper: they want to send 10,000+ emails per minute down a DSL line bought with a stolen credit card quick before the account gets cancelled.


But won't spammers steal CPU time?

...etc etc etc
