Learn how DNS can supplement your SPAM fighting arsenal!
SPAM! The word alone is enough to make most network and email administrators shudder. Despite many promises made earlier this decade, effectively stemming the flow of SPAM has proved to be an elusive goal. But all is not lost. The International Engineering Task Force (IETF) is working on several innovative solutions based on the Domain Name System (DNS), which is a critical component in all email systems. Combined with currently popular SPAM-blocking solutions, enterprises today can reduce SPAM to manageable levels.
