Microsoft fans got an update from Bill Gates on Monday about the company's antispam efforts.
In an "executive e-mail" to international subscribers, Gates highlighted several steps the software maker is taking to thwart spam, which by some accounts now eclipses legitimate e-mail 3-to-1. Those strategies include fostering technology standards to identify e-mail forgery, working with other Internet service providers to define industry best practices, and helping law enforcement agencies nab spammers.
