America Online said Thursday that it will not support a Microsoft-backed antispam technology called Sender ID.
Bill Gates' prediction of January 2004 that spam would be "a thing of the past" within two years has virtually no chance of coming true, according to security company Sophos this week.
An anti-spam technology that focuses on identifying forged e-mail addresses has been proposed as a standard by Cisco, Yahoo and partners.
If you use Yahoo Mail you should soon be seeing a significant reduction in the number of e-mail scams purporting to be from eBay and PayPal.
A coalition aiming to erase junk e-mail unites behind the law but stumbles over technology.
Peter Cullen, the company's chief privacy strategist, explains how Sender ID can take a bite out of spam and phishing.
For almost two years, I've argued for a non-proprietary, interoperable, freely deployable anti-spam standard, even as every spam-fighting solution I've seen has failed to pass muster. Until now.
E-mail has taken a battering over the last year or so with mountains of spam and viruses delivered to our mailboxes daily. Can the problem be fixed, and can e-mail still be free?
New anti-spam technology standards are on the way that promise to hit spammers where it hurts the most -- their wallets.
