    Will Microsoft's PAY to mail system ever gain traction?

    The current implementations seem rather awkward... plus, good luck on getting a common standard.

    Your thoughts?

    Actually, the body who decides what the standards are for email have already shot this down...I believe the biggest problem was M$'s licensing of the technology involved and how it could be abused.

    Had this been an Open Source project licensed under the GNU GPL i think it would have made it a bit further but still would have been shot down.

          Are there any other anti-spam (email) solutions?

            It isnt "Pay" as in money but you pay with CPU cycles wasted on decrypting a packet of data and thus eliminating the "Mass" emailing.

            For it to work _EVERYONE_ would have to upgrade mail servers which would make it virtually impossible.

            The only true way to eliminate spam is to have an AI filtering program which would dynamically pick up on the spam and learn along side the spammers.

            Another way to get rid of spam is to have your mail server scan ips of SMTP servers connecting and reject the mail if it finds open proxy ports as the majority of spam gets sent via open proxy servers which get installed on unpatched M$ machines.
