Assume the below bill becomes law. Would anyone care to write a program
that violates this law and send it to me in the next 10 hours? I would be
glad to give you full credit in my weekly column, which is why I'm writing
this. Heck, maybe a procmail-formail combination would do it.
This might be the easiest to code for:
''(i) is designed or produced primarily for the purpose of concealing the
source or routing information of bulk unsolicited electronic mail messages
in a manner prohibited by subparagraph (D) of this paragraph;
-Declan
SEC. 2. PROTECTION FROM FRAUDULENT UNSOLICITED E-MAIL.
Section 1030 of title 18, United States Code, is amended�
(1) in subsection (a)(5)�
(A) by striking ''or'' at the end of subparagraph (B); and
(B) by inserting after subparagraph (C) the following:
''(D) intentionally and without authorization initiates the transmission of
a bulk unsolicited electronic mail message to a protected computer with
knowledge that such message falsifies an Internet domain, header
information, date or time stamp, originating e-mail address, or other
identifier; or
''(E) intentionally sells or distributes any computer program that�
''(i) is designed or produced primarily for the purpose of concealing the

in a manner prohibited by subparagraph (D) of this paragraph;
''(ii) has only limited commercially significant purpose or use other than

''(iii) is marketed by the violator or an- other person acting in concert
