TL;DR: Each sender has or subscribes to a reliable mail server. The mail server does not deliver mail to recipients; it sends a tiny notification (restricted set of headers + UUID) to each recipient's reliable mail server. The recipient requests (or doesn't) the whole piece of mail via HTTPS or similar. The basic anti-spam tactic is to reject a whole server because it has sent you spam in the past.
- Aachen 7y agoHow is that different from spamhaus and similar services that tell you which servers allegedly sent spam in the past? Except that it sounds like every person has to reinvent the wheel by blocking servers themselves instead of using an existing list. Note that I don't use nor am a fan of systems like spamhaus, it just sounds very similar.
- JdeBP 7y agoIt is structurally very different, because it attacks the problem by attempting to eliminate the concept of bulk mail. * http://jdebp.uk./Proposals/IM2000/anti-ubm.html http://jdebp.uk./Proposals/IM2000/anti-ubm.html You are using a pull-style electronic communication system right now. * https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10405864 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10405864
