Coming up on the show David Pogue will be with us from the New York Times. In the meantime Greylisting is this hour*s Geek Speak. We take a tech term and turn it into plain English before your very ears. Greylisting you know spam is just horrible. Spam, spam, I mean I sell a 10 Quick Steps Guide to Stopping Spam as one of my best sellers. People hate spam and spammers have a particular way of operating that Greylisting takes advantage of to help stem the tide of spam. Greylisting is a means of taking advantage of the fact that when you send a piece of E-mail between your server and your intended address to your server the person you are sending the mail to. That server at the other end could be busy and so built into the system is the ability for that server at the other end to say no I am too busy come back in another 5 seconds or 10 seconds or 15 seconds or whatever. And the mail system works in such a way that the mail system that is sending your message will say alright fine and it will try again in another 5 or 10 or 20 seconds. Now what spammers do, this is for legitimate mail what spammers do is they use tools that just send the mail out they don't try back. They just send the mail out, if it gets there great, if it doesn't that's okay. They can always send a whole bunch more mail later on but it certainly doesn't sit there and try and send mail again. First of all the opposite, it can't communicate back. The E-mail recipient can't communicate back with the spammer because they are sending from an overseas site that's mastered from a open relay or what not. So what Greylisting does is yes it delays your mail by 5 or 10 seconds but what it does it says to every piece of inbound mail no, I can't take you right now come back in 5 or 10 seconds. Now spam mail won't but legitimate mail will and it*s brilliant and its working like a charm. If your ISP isn*t offering Greylisting call him up and say how come you are not offering Greylisting please. It takes very little time, very little resources, very little configuration and it works with other spam defenses but it can all by itself cut your spam by 90% to 95% it's brilliant. You can find out more about it at www.projects.puremagic.com/greylisting and that's what the guy who came up with this whole thing has a little white paper that you can read on it. Greylisting that is this hour*s Geek Speak and it is brought to you by the Fantasy Music League. Now for those of you who are into Fantasy Sports if you love your Fantasy Baseball and your Fantasy NASCAR and your Fantasy Football and what not, you will love the Fantasy Music League game especially if you are into music. Instead of creating a team you create a label and instead of hiring football players, drafting football players you sign music artists that are on the charts.

And now you could buy for your share of $25000 in cash and prizes and make money for referring your friends and family to play in the game.
