Microsoft Getting Tough on Spam

Love or hate em, the Redmond mob at Microsoft have their hearts in the right place when it comes to spam:

"Not content with merely adding new spam-filtering capabilities to its e-mail software, in the coming year Microsoft also intends to track down and take legal action against spammers, no matter where in the world the junk mailers are located. "

Given Microsoft's gigantic resources - both financial and technical - this is a welcome attitude, and if genuine, the big time spammers should be concerned.
