SPAM and Anti-Spam

The SPAM battlefield is in a constant state of flux. As better weapons are built on the defense side, spammers are constantly building better weapons to overcome these measures on the offensive side. By becoming and staying informed, about the offensive and defensive weapons of both spammers and anti-spammers, we can prepare ourselves and our organizations to take direct measures to reduce the proliferation of SPAM. Finally, by understanding the elements that define what a spam message is and the tactics that are used we can consciously take steps to avoid being classified and treated as spammers.
