Spam, Milord

Your daily dose of spam... rjwoodhead writes "Hansard, the official journal of the UK parliament, reports on a recent discussion of spam in the House of Lords which not only mentions Monty Python, but reads like one of their skits." A New York spammer has been arrested. One account isn't scientifically representative, but it's a grim picture when you're showing a spam-doubling every 42 days. And an article in New Scientist suggests solving a puzzle, which is essentially the same idea as hash cash.

an entirely new authenticating XML based E-Mail protocol.

Oh, Christ - another pointless application of XML. What use is XML in this application? Why do XML users want to add an extra layer of pointless, unreadable, inefficient garbage on top of every single computer application?

Seriously: what would XML contribute to authenticating email?
