  Junk mail evades Hotmail filter
Time: 06:00 EST/11:00 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Alex Harris

Hotmail users are irked at a loophole in Hotmail's anti-spam technology which makes them unable to block messages from certain senders. Spammers sending unsolicited emails from staff@somwhere.something are sailing past defences because addresses prefixed by staff can't be blocked by Hotmail's filter, Reg readers inform us.

It's a minor irritation, for now, and not something addressed by Hotmail's partnership with spam filtering specialist Brightmail. Brightmail is yet to respond to our requests for comment on the issue but in the interests of fairness we note that its partnership with Hotmail aims to reduce - not eliminate - the amount of spam received by Hotmail users receive. This is reaching epidemic proportions.
