Gates plans an end to spam in two years

A spam-free world by 2006? That's what Microsoft chairman Bill Gates is promising.

"Two years from now, spam will be solved," he told a select group of World Economic Forum participants in Davis, Switzerland. Gates said his company is working on a "magic solution" based on the concept of "proof" - identifying the sender of the e-mail.

One method involves requiring the sender to solve a puzzle that only a flesh-and-blood person can handle. Another is a "computational puzzle" that a computer sending only a few messages could easily handle, but that would be prohibitively expensive for a mass-mailer.

But the most promising, Gates said, was a method that would hit the sender of an e-mail in the pocket. People would set a level of monetary risk - low or high, depending on their own choice - for receiving e-mail from strangers.

If the e-mail turned out to be from a long-lost relative, for example, the recipient would charge nothing. But if it is unwanted spam, the sender would have to fork out the cash. "In the long run, the monetary [method] will be dominant," Gates predicted.

He conceded, however, that his prognostications have not always been on the mark. He misjudged the rising popularity of open-source software, itomised by Linux, and the success of the Google search engine.

Nisam koristio Outlook, ali u nekim trenutnim verzijama, kaze mi prijatelj, postoji neki pametni spam filter koji se lako uci sta da propusta a sta ne. Cekam od njega jos komentara...

A mislim da je i Drax jednom prilikom nesto slicno rekao.

Da već sam pomenuo da je MS Outlook 2003 vrlo dobar po tom pitanju, imao sam gnjavažu od oko 50-tak SPAM-ova dnevno, čim sam instalirao pomenuti program problem sam rešio običnim prevlačenjem dosadnih poruka u "Junk E-mail" folder, i pritom radi na najnižoj sigurnosnoj opciji.
