    IBM Fights Back Against Spammers

    IBM upped the ante in its fight against spam by releasing FairUCE Tuesday, a technology the company claims fights junk mail better by analyzing the "domain identity" of an e-mail. If an e-mail is deemed to be spam, it is redirected back to the real sender, essentially spamming the spammer.

    According to IBM, a computer would be able to differentiate an e-mail that is spoofed, such as the numerous PayPal scams circulating the Internet, from a true e-mail coming from a legitimate source.

    Strange that SpamitBack (.com) beat IBM to that idea a year ago. Need more proof that large corporations lie, cheat and steal (in this case ideas) lol
