Microsoft Will Submit 'Caller ID' To The IETF

An anonymous reader submits "According to a recent mailing list post by Harry Katz who is the Program Manager of Exchange at Microsoft, they plan to submit MSFT's "Caller ID" proposal to the IETF: 'I want to inform members of the MARID working group that Microsoft will shortly be submitting the Caller ID for E-mail specification to the IETF as an Informational RFC. We request that the Caller ID specification be considered an input document to the working group's deliberations.'"

As much as Microsoft can't be trusted .. i do hope many of the bigger companies/organisations do collaborate on some sort of standard.

Because all I need to be happy in this world is to fulfil my one last dream in life.

I won't go into it, but lets just say it involves a blowtorch, a pair of pliers and a tied up spammer.
