An end to spam?
Well I'd like to think so. CNET News ran a story today about Domain Key ID being approved as a standard by the Internet Engineering Task Force. Basically a digital signature is inserted in the header of an email which can be verified by the recipient. This should enable the elimination of much spam, but only if we all adopt the system and upgrade our mail software. Chances of it happening anytime soon then are zero!
