AOL Signs Off From Sender ID







AOL Signs Off From Sender ID

AOL Signs Off From Sender ID 09/17/2004 06:43 AM

America Online has decided not to fully support Microsoft's Sender ID spam-fighting plan after the Internet Engineering Task Force and the open-source community expressed intellectual property concerns. "AOL will now not be moving forward with full deployment of the Sender ID protocol," spokesman Nicholas Graham said in a statement sent via e-mail Thursday. Instead, the Dulles, Virginia-based Internet service provider will support only the Sender Policy Framework to fight spam by verifying the source of e-mail sent to its users, he said.

AOL's rejection comes a week after an IETF group considering Sender ID as a standard said the proposal needed rewriting. Earlier this month, the open-source groups Apache Software Foundation and Debian Project dismissed Sender ID because the license would prevent them from supporting the technology. AOL is concerned about the lack of acceptance for Sender ID in the open-source community, Graham said. Additionally, the ISP is afraid that recent changes to Sender ID will make it incompatible with the original SPF specification, he said. AOL had endorsed Sender ID when it was submitted to the IETF in June.

Too Much Fuss Over Sender ID


Too Much Fuss Over Sender ID 09/02/2004 02:06 AM
"Why all the fuss when a spam-free channel is already available and working 24/7 -- without infrastructure changes?" asks UseBestMail author Martel Firing. The Sender-ID system proposed by IETF and backed by Microsoft, Cloudmark, Symantec, and others requires infrastructure changes and may take years, while UseBestMail's spam-free channel is infrastructure neutral and is here now. He then goes on to question sender-ID's blacklist, sender reputation and law enforcement models, which he maintains won't do much to prevent spam given the proven ingenuity of the spammers themselves.

Spammers love Sender ID

ALTHOUGH Microsoft's anti-spam sender-ID is disliked by Open Sources, it is providing popular with the very people it is targeted against. According to E-mail security outfit MX Logic, spammers are taking to sender-id faster than an IT journalist to whisky. The science is pretty easy. Under the Sender Policy Framework (SPF), companies publish a list of authorised E-mail servers for the domains they control. This is used by those receiving E-mail to make sure the purported server of origin matches the one listed in the message header.

Email Sender ID: It's like Kerberos all

09/02/2004 08:00 AM
We received a lot of interesting feedback in comments and email as a result of the story we ran last week on Email Sender ID: the hype and the reality." Many of those who contacted us are intimately acquainted with the subject matter, having had personal, first-hand involvement in the process to date. One of those was Yakov Shafronovich, who co-chaired the Anti-Spam Research Group during 2003, when the group was considering this very issue, prior to passing it on to the IETF. That led to an exchange of email messages during which I got a much clearer look at how Microsoft is once again embracing, extending, and attempting to encumber open source technology. Doggone it, it looks like Kerberos all over again.

Open saucers are beginning to suspect that Microsoft’s spam fighting Sender ID might be a cunning plan to hamstring Linux. The folks at Vole have managed to get a consensus among rivals for its Sender ID which enables identification of the source of an email before it is sent. However according to US mag PC Week, the licence for sender ID might breach open source requirements and Linux developers would not be able to use it.

There are a number of promising technical papers under consideration by the Internet Engineering Task Force which deal with the ever-growing problem of spam. Most of them seek to attack the spam problem obliquely rather than head on. These techniques avoid looking at message content in an attempt to determine if an email is spam or not. Instead, they focus on authenticating the sender. Since most spam comes from forged email addresses, eliminating such forgery would be a big step up in the fight against spam. In this article we'll look at the evolution of the current Sender ID proposals, and we'll also examine some of the non-technical barriers which might prevent any of the proposed solutions from ever working.
