Someone can accept payment for emails without actually reading them. With proof-of-work, it's the recipient's incentive to set the difficulty to the point where they want to read everything they get.

As the recipient it is in my interest to get the payment that would otherwise go to a mining pool to attach that PoW.

Yes but it's not in the sender's interest to use that system as much. PoW aligns the interest of both parties.
It is in the sender's interest to do what is in the recipient's interest, if the sender wants to maximize the chance that the recipient reads the message.
That's just manipulation.
