Sooner or later the internet industry is going to be forced to accept that the current methods of generating and transmitting e-mail cannot continue into the future.
Spam is going to destroy e-mail as a communications medium unless everyone stops trying to apply band-aid solutions and agrees on a completely new standard which makes high-volume anonymous e-mail transmission technically impossible because it's been built that way from the ground up.
Spam is now resulting in e-mail becoming close to useless for me. All the spam filtering is causing messages to vanish in transit in both directions.
When they come up with a whole new standard, remember that you read it here first. Well maybe not. :)
