IronPort, others support Microsoft's Sender ID

IronPort's security appliances will include Sender ID checks

-- Cloudmark Inc. with its Cloudmark Rating for Sender ID, a free reputation system that will provide real-time reputation information that companies and Internet service providers can use to retrieve a reputation rating for an e-mail domain, based on data generated from about 330 million e-mail messages it processes daily, said Karl Jacob, chief executive officer of Cloudmark.

In addition to retrieving a Sender ID validation from the DNS record of the sending domain, recipients will be able to query the Cloudmark service to retrieve a reputation score for the sender, the company said.

The idea is to allow e-mail recipients to both verify the source of an e-mail message, and spot Sender ID authenticated messages, nevertheless, are sent from domains owned by spammers, Jacob said.

-- E-mail marketing technology company DoubleClick Inc. said its DARTmail e-mail management system is compliant with Sender ID.

-- Tumbleweed Communications Corp. will adopt Sender ID for version 6.1 of its Email Firewall product. The company already supports both the SPF and Caller ID technologies, which were combined to form Sender ID.
