---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
This subgroup will investigate standards for filtering for automatic updates and sharing of filtering information, and better interaction between filters, MTAs and MUAs.

Goals:
1. Investigate the requirements for a common header to be produced by filters (something like "Filtered-By"), so MUAs do not have to look for different types of headers. Included in this is research, are ways to deal with possible forging of these headers by spammers. 2. Research requirements for a filter specification format and possibly protocol, to be used for dynamic updates for filters. This will include research into whether existing formats and languages for filter rules such as SIEVE (RFC 3028) can be used for this purpose. 3. Provide one or more draft charters for an IETF WG and associated documents.

Status:
Currently in formation, will be starting in February of 2004.

Membership:
This subgroup has a closed membership policy, to join contact the ASRG chairs

Intendended Participants:
o Developers of filters
o ISPs and MTA administrators
o Developers of MTAs and MUAs
