Time: 01:34 EST/06:34 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

As part of an ongoing initiative to give users access to its technology, Microsoft Corp. Monday added a format for fighting spoof e-mail to a list of specifications that can be used freely for development.

Sender ID, an e-mail specification for detecting when an e-mail address is being spoofed to send spam, can now be used as a basis for new technology by anyone under Microsoft's Open Specification Promise (OSP), said Jason Matusow, senior director of interoperability for Microsoft

Through the OSP, published in September, Microsoft promised it would not take any patent-enforcement action against people that want to use specifications on a list of Web services technologies for which it has patents. Now Sender ID has been added to the list of specifications that are freely available for use, he said.
