forwardOn
I recently learned about a site called forwardOn. The folks behind this site state their mission as trying to reward users for preventing the potential negative effects of forwarding email (wasted bandwidth and storage, viruses and scams). ForwardOn is free to join. To use forwardOn all you need to do is strip your email of all everything but the content you want forwarded and forward it to forwardOn. You’ll get a confirmation link that you can then forward to your friends.
My thoughts. I totally understand what they claim to be setting out to do. The problem is that the average person will not want to do the additional work before forwarding. Think about it. If they were going scrub their email before forwarding it they’d probably already be doing so without forwardOn. And, they’re not going to want to forward the same thing twice in order for it to get to their chosen destination.
