- Anti-Spam Research Group
The Anti-Spam Research Group (ASRG) is a research group within the
Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) dedicated to research into curbing spam on an Internet-wide level. It consists of a set of mailing lists to coordinate work and a small web site.As with other IRTF groups, the ASRG is expected to contribute to the
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) process by contributing drafts, documents and assists in creation of newworking group s. So far, only one IETF group has been spun off from the ASRG –MARID .The ASRG is sporadically active, with most activity happening on the mailing lists and subgroup lists. In 2008 the ASRG worked on Internet Drafts about
DNSBL s.Current and Former Chairs of the ASRG
