    "If your e-mail does not have a Sender ID, Microsoft wants to junk your message. Somewhere after November, MSN and Hotmail will consider it as spam. Sender ID is a specification for verifying the authenticity of e-mail by ensuring the validity of the server from which the e-mail came. Some experts feel that 'Sender ID' is not an accepted standard and has many shortcomings. Some also feel that Microsoft is trying to strong-arm the industry into the adoption of an incomplete and not accepted standard."

    Sounds like a good idea, I get alot of emails that have no sender on my gmail account, they also dont have a message.

    I have issues with having an ID's online.

    Probably late to whine given how much apps phone home these days.

    this will block all email at their servers that do not use microsofts version of sender id. that means even trusted people on your list will not be able to send you email and get it delivered unless they implement sender id.

    cant really see this taking off unless some other big companies get behind it.

    Sometimes, having Sender ID also spam.
