Problem with Permission Definition If she opts-out from one newsletter, can I still send others to her? Does an Info Request mean I can add him to my mailing list? Does her consent on Product A extend to Product B? Is he still a customer if he hasn’t bought recently? Maybe. . . it all depends.

The Solution: Our View Best Practices Consumer Education Legislation / Standards Technology
Consumer Education Consumer control and choice must be at the center of any solution Consumers must understand embrace good email “security” n (really, really difficult. . . ) We (ISPs, ESPs and solutions providers) need to understand consumer concerns related to deliverability: n I_did_not_get_my_email forum
Best Practices Consent/Permission/Opt-In n Are consent standards attainable? (Many failed efforts in this area) We may not have a choice! (Monster. Hut) Varying legal standards will demand varying solutions anyways It Just Makes $ense n Better practices results in higher returns for legitimate email marketing
Legislation We need Federal, preemptive legislation! n n Senator Burns: Can Spam Act House bill? State “crazy quilt” hurts us all n n n 26 and counting Differing standards – impossible compliance “do not email” proposals will only penalize legitimate senders
Technology Build ACCOUNTABILITY into the system n n ISPs accountable for delivery Anti-spam solutions (blacklists, filters) accountable for their offerings Senders accountable for what they send and to whom ESPs accountable for creating transparency NAI effort: n n Verification and Certification Authentication Objective compliance monitoring Enforcement Need for standards, broad consensus and “ownership” among various constituents
Four Steps To Eradicate The Spam Plague 1. Implement a “platform” for accountability 1. 2. 3. Verification and certification Authentication Objective compliance monitoring 2. Establish independent email trust authority 3. Pass federal preemptive legislation prohibiting falsified email headers 4. Demand full transparency 1. 2. Sender transparency (origin of email, etc. ) Receiver transparency (standards for delivery, etc. )
