ARMONK, N.Y - IBM has introduced a new anti-spam technology called Fair use of Unsolicited Commercial Email (FairUCE) that bounces spam back to its sender.


The tool analyzes the domain identity of an email, linking it back to its original IP address and can identify if messages are arriving from a zombie computer, bot or a legitimate email server, according to the company.


Interesting

I saw that a few minutes ago. So it pretty much attacks the sender's puter.

Ah well , so glad I no longer bulk mail :)

Yeah, acn't wait till they get some from someone spoofing one of my domains and flood my servers on me....

It would be so nice to do a can spam suit against a big old deep pocket company like ibm............... :okthumb:
