24 July 2004 - Masters degree students at the University of Oslo and Oslo University College credit Tim Bass and Lt. Col. (R) Glenn Watt as the first to formalize the spam filtering model; a model which was later to be adapted by all spam filtering software. Visit their Wiki-Wiki portal for the Network and System Administration (NaSA) here.. "Researcher Tim Bass [SilkRoad] and Lt. Col. Glenn Watt, at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia, USA, made an early attempt [1997] to block out huge amounts of spam that were relayed through their SMTP servers. They assumed that most of the emails were coming from a small group of individuals, since the theme was somewhat similar. They contained pornographic material and bigoted hate-mail. However, since most of the mail headers were forged, it was nearly impossible to track them down. They formed the Tiger Team, a group of scientists and military engineers, dedicated to fighting the spammers. The team developed a model that formed the basis of a working prototype. It consisted of a queue piped through a processing filter, where the classification was done. Their implementation is far too simple to be used for anything serious nowadays. Nevertheless, they were the first to formalize this model - a model which was later to be adapted by all spamfiltering software."
