Emerging Trends in Fighting Spam

Overview Spam has been a serious problem for email administrators and users alike for more than five years, growing from one in six emails in 2002 to approximately three out of four emails today. In fact, after five years of dealing with spam and throwing significant resources at the problem, 54% of messaging decision-makers in mid-sized and large organizations still view spam as a serious or very serious problem according to a recent Osterman Research survey.

This white paper from Osterman Research focuses on the problems caused by image spam, as well as other spammer techniques for delivering content through existing spam-blocking defenses.
