  2. Spam – What is it? • Spam is unwanted/unrequested commercial e-mail. • Spam is also attempts to trick You for money or personal information, like passwords or account numbers. • Spam is illegal in most European countries, but most spam isn’t European, in fact 70% of all spammail comes from Asia. spamFencepresentation

  3. Do we have a spamproblem? • Have you ever recieved a spammail? • Are You familiar with anyone who’s recieved a spammail? • Is the number of spammail climbing or dropping? • Do You think those who send spam are getting smarter or dumber? spamFencepresentation

  4. How big is the problem? • The number of spammails per employee has doubled in year 2002 compared to year 2001, Jupiter Media Metrix • ”10% of our incoming e-mail is spam”, Børsen • “About 20 percent of incoming messages to AT&T WorldNet are junk e-mail”, Janet Wyles, AT&T WorldNet • “..costing an estimated $1 per piece in lost productivity” Chris Lewis (major telecommunications company) spamFencepresentation

  5. What do most people do? Companies who wish to reduce the number of spammails have uptil now had the following possibilities: • Create a simple filter in the e-mail program and throw e-mails in the ”Junk mailbox” • Order and use a simple spamfilter and sort out 20-50% spam and risk real e-mails being blocked aswell. • Do nothing and delete the spammail when it has arrived. spamFencepresentation

  6. Misunderstandings! • ”A firewall stops spam!” • ”I’ve deleted those messages in no time!” • ”It (spam) will probably go away by itself!” • ”We haven’t had a problem so far, so I don’t suspect anything will come our way!” • ”Just sign off the mailing list and You won’t recieve it anymore!” spamFencepresentation

  9. Why not use Outlook to filter? • The function ”add to junk senders list” simply adds an e-mail address that probably doesn’t exit. A minute after You’ve added the e-mail address, a similar spammail could be received from another e-mail address. • The spamsenders are clever enough to get passed almost any filter in Outlook. That’s why we have to use more drastic measures to get rid of spam. spamFencepresentation
