Microsoft, AOL resurrect Sender ID
InternetNews | at | by Mike
AOL is back in the Microsoft Sender ID for E-Mail camp after the Redmond, Wash., software giant announced it had made two significant changes to its specification and filed them with the Internet Engineering Task Force Monday. Ryan Hamlin, Microsoft's general manager of anti-spam technology and strategy group, said the company has amended one of its patent applications to distinguish Sender ID for E-Mail authentication from Sender Policy Framework authentication records, the information that determines whether an e-mail is truly coming from the domain it claims to.
