FIELD: physics; computer engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: present invention includes an e-mail component and an identification request component. The e-mail component can receive e-mail messages and calculate associated probability that data of the e-mail message are spam. The identification request component sends an identification request to the e-mail message sender having the said probability greater than the first received value. The identification request component corrects the probability that the given e-mail message is spam at least partially based on the response to the identification request. The identification request can be an embedded code, a calculated identification request, an identification request requiring participation of a person, and/or micro-payment requirement. ^ EFFECT: invention provides detection of spam through identification requests. ^ 31 cl, 13 dwg |
