On the technology front, the ASRG (http://asrg.sp.am/) is starting to make headway. I am interested to see how its MARID WG plays out. MARID would require the sender's domain and authorized MTA(s) to be registered in DNS. Dynamic IP addresses present an issue, but there has been discussion about how DHCP users could update their information using Dynamic DNS (DDNS). Subject to DNS propogation, it would allow users in DHCP pools, as well as roaming users, to authenticate a new MTA address. In order for an infected Microsoft Windows system to be an effective spambot, it would have to be able to change the DNS information for the domain(s) it wants to use in forged sending addresses. Otherwise, it would be limited to spoofing whatever domains are registered with the current MTA. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
