Here we have a list of websites that will pay you to read e-mails:
1. Email Pays U - I've been a member with these people since 2002 - you get for $10 joining up and you get one or two e-mails a day, you click on them and get credited - you can eventually have the cash or use it to pay for adverts on the system, so it's a lot like a traffic exchange, they have some good deals for advertisers - mainly work from home/home business/networking adverts.
