Sunnyvale, CA, Redmond, WA, Atlanta, GA, and Dulles, VA -- June 22, 2004
The Anti-Spam Technical Alliance (ASTA), whose participants include Yahoo! Inc. (Nasdaq "YHOO"), Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq "MSFT"), EarthLink (Nasdaq "ELNK") and America Online Inc. (NYSE "TWX"), today unveiled the result of more than a year of close collaboration by presenting a host of detailed best practices and technical recommendations for the entire industry in an effort to fight the scourge of spam.
The proposal provides recommended actions and policies for Internet service providers (ISPs) and e-mail service providers (ESPs) as well as large senders of e-mail including governments, private corporations and online marketing organizations. These recommendations primarily focus on two key issues: helping solve the e-mail forgery problem by eliminating domain spoofing through Internet Protocol (IP)-based and signature-based solutions; and best practices to help prevent ISPs and their customers from being sources of spam.
The complete ASTA proposal can be found at each adopting company's Web site:
ASTA was founded in April 2003 to bring together key industry stakeholders to drive technical standards and promote collaboration in the development of industry guidelines to address the spam problem. Current members include leading technology companies such as America Online, British Telecom, Comcast, EarthLink, Microsoft and Yahoo!.
