Hurricane Electric Offers Anti-Spam.
2005-03-03, HostMan.biz Technical Service Provider Hurricane Electric (he.com) announced on Thursday that it has updated added its Web hosting and dedicated server accounts with several new anti-spam email options that will significantly lower its customers' incoming spam. The anti-spam technologies include greylisting, sender email address validation, virus blocking and MX+. Greylisting requires the mail servers of email senders to be RFC 2821 compliant. Sender email address validation insures that the return email address is valid and rejects all mail sent from invalid email addresses. Virus blocking reduces spam by blocking all windows executables that may contain viruses. And MX+ checks the sender domain to see that it matches the MX record of the domain in the envelope from, or that the reverse DNS of the sending IP is a sub-domain of the domain used in the envelope from. "We conducted extensive tests on numerous anti-spam techniques," says Hurricane Electric president Mike Leber. "These are the most robust anti-spam techniques we could find. They will give our users excellent ways to eliminate spam while avoiding the side effects associated with traditional anti-spam techniques that give false positives." During testing, Hurricane Electric found an 80 percent decline in spam when using greylisting anti-spam technique alone. After enabling all four anti-spam techniques, Hurricane Electric projects that users will see a 98 percent reduction in spam. |
