Bill Gates says he hopes to have the spam problem under control within two years - again.
The world's most spammed email recipient, Bill Gates, said last month that he hopes to have the spam problem under control within two years. However, this is not the first time Gates has quoted this time frame - ten months ago the VB website reported that Bill Gates had 'explained that spam would not be a problem in two years' time, due to Microsoft's movements on sender-pays email' (see http://www.virusbtn.com/news/virus_news/2004/02_03.xml). It was revealed last month that, with an average of four million incoming email messages per day, Bill Gates ranks as the world's most spammed email recipient [and we thought we'd got it bad! - Ed]. There's little reason to feel sorry for Gates though, since he has an entire team dedicated to dealing with his emails.
