Summary:
|
Instant messaging is gaining large popularity and the proliferation of spam over instant messaging (SPIM) is becoming a serious problem. The characteristics of instant messaging, such as Internet protocol (IP)-based, free of charge and wide coverage, cause instant messaging spam (SPIM) spread widely and are out of control. If these problems are not carefully solved, it will have very negative impact on the utilization of instant messaging service itself.
Recommendation ITU-T X.cspim identifies characteristics of instant messaging spam and then specifies technical requirements for countering instant messaging spam.
