    • Wall Street Journal, 13 November 2002. In one case cited, a mailing of 3.5 million messages resulted in 81 sales in the first week, a rate of 0.0023%. Each sale was worth $19 to the marketing company, resulting in $1.500 in the first week. The cost to send the messages was minimal, probably less than $100 per million mail messages. The study estimated that by the time the marketing company had reached all of the 100 million addresses it had on file, it would probably have pocketed more than $25.000 on the project.

According to estimates by Ferris Research, which tracks the messaging market, revenue for vendors selling anti-spam products would be approximately $130 million in 2003 and would soar 200% in 2004 to a whopping $360 million. That is substantially more than the senders of spam see in revenue, much less profit.

    • The word 'phishing' recalls the sound of fishing and well represents the activities of these scammers, using email lures to 'fish' for passwords and financial data from the sea of internet users. The particular spelling 'ph' is a common hacker replacement for 'f' and is a nod to the original form of hacking, known as 'phreaking'. Phishing is used to trick recipients into divulging personal financial data such as credit card numbers, account usernames and passwords, and social security numbers by sending messages that direct them to legitimate-looking websites masquerading as the sites of a trusted financial institution or online merchant. The information is then used to access and drain money from their accounts.

    • The following is an illustration of how such authentication mechanism is used to prevent forgery: (a) When the destination email server receives an email coming from a certain IP address, the email claims to be from a certain sender, but we need a way to find out if this is genuine. (b) The authentication system will provide one of three things: (i) the sender is good - the sender has previously announced that they do send mail from that IP address; (ii) the sender is bad - the purported sender has published a list of IP addresses they send mail from, and the incoming IP is not one of them; (iii) the sender is unknown - there is insufficient information to decide one way or the other. For the authentication system to answer the question, the domain owners will typically have to designate a list of IP addresses that they use to send mails from their domains.

    • For example, they will replace the letter 'o' with numeric '0' in the words they use, or they will hide their text within HTML lingo as illustrated in the following example: S  E  X . This word is not easily decipherable by a human or a non-HTML-enabled email client. However, with an HTML-enabled email client the word 'S E X' will appear correctly, because the client will be able to understand the HTML tag ' ' and know that it represents a blank space between the characters. This intelligent little trick that exploits the HTML rendering capability in modern email clients poses a great challenge to static filtering rules, because there are millions of ways of spelling the word 'SEX' by padding different HTML tags in between the letters. For a solution to this problem, see for example A Swatz's HTML to Text Script, www.aaronsw.com/2002/html2text/.

    • One technique involves manipulating the font and background colours so that they are the same, rendering the bogus text invisible (eg white text on white background). Another shortfall is that Bayesian needs to be sufficiently trained before it becomes usable.

    • Thus, when users move from one email client to another that has a different Bayesian implementation, they will most likely need to spend a few days or even weeks retraining their system from scratch. Furthermore, users tend to get complacent after making use of the Bayesian system for a period of time because the system is fairly good at classifying spam.

    • Blacklist maintainers, for example, need not disclose the criteria they use nor afford due process to accused spammers. The market does provide a check on such activity, but incomplete information, complexity of the issues and concentration of market power all affect the extent to which blacklists and other anti-spam measures are likely to be held accountable (although see Cyber Promotions, Inc. v AOL, Inc., 948 F. Supp 456, 464 (E.D. Pa 1996) holding that AOL is not likely to be proven an 'essential facility' despite its substantial market share).

The definition in Art 2(a) of an 'electronic communications network', supra n 80, specifically mentions the internet as a network. With regard to the other phrases: 'which can be stored in the network or on the recipient's terminal equipment' - anything can in principle be stored on terminal equipment, provided it has the appropriate functionality; 'until it is collected by the recipient' before an email user pulls email messages into the inbox of an email program on his computer, the email is stored on the mail-server and it is possible to leave email on the server to be able to use it as an archive when working with web mail, or to retrieve email from the server at different locations (eg at home and at work).

The Commission commented on this by stating 'EP amendment 35 proposed to only single out SMS messages and include them in paragraph 1 of this article requiring prior consent of recipients while leaving the approach to other forms of email for the Member States to decide. The Council preferred a harmonised approach on the basis of prior consent for all forms of electronic mail.': Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament pursuant to the second subparagraph of Art 251(2) of the EC Treaty concerning the common position of the Council on the adoption of a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector, SEC/2002/0124 final-COD 2000/0189, pp 1-2, 17 [emphasis added].

    • As a comparison, the Australian Spam Act 2003 covers unsolicited commercial electronic messages that are sent using email, SMS, MMS and instant messaging. However, it does not cover non-electronic messages (messages sent by way of voice calls using the telephone are specifically excluded in s 5(5)). Furthermore, the Australian Spam Regulations 2004 No 56 exclude facsimile messages from the definition as well. Hence, in this respect they have a narrower application than the European legislation. The Korean Act on Promotion of Information and Communications and Communication Network Utilisation and Protection of 2001, like the EU E-Privacy Directive, was amended in June 2003 to define 'spamming media' as including telephone, fax and other electronic multimedia, as well as email. SMS and 'pop-up' windows are also caught by the Act. This broad application of the Korean Act, like the E-Privacy Directive, thus recognises the serious nuisance posed by various media apart from emails.
