An Overview of the Email Channels Technology Underlying ZoEmail

چکیده

The patented[3] Email Channels technology[1, 2], invented and originally developed by me during the latter half of the 1990s at AT&T Laboratories Research and currently being commercialized by ZoEmail LLC[4], allows a user effectively to have many variants of a common “base” address, with each variant to be used by a different set of correspondents. The variants, also known as channels or channelized addresses, are chosen so that knowing one will not reveal any of the others. Typically, a user would allocate a channel for private use by each close friend or colleague, ones for use by particular companies, services, or websites, and general public channels for use on business cards and personal web pages. By having many channels, if a correspondent sends spam and won’t stop, one simply clicks “close channel” and that person’s future messages are rejected by the mail servers before they are accepted and stored on the ISP’s machine, before they are downloaded through a slow modem link, and most importantly before the user sees them. (There is also an option to “switch” the channel of a legitimate correspondent, in case that correspondent has accidentally leaked the channel address to a spammer.)

A Two-Threshold Guard Channel Scheme for Minimizing Blocking Probability in Communication Networks

In this paper, we consider the call admission problem in cellular network with two classes of voice users. In the first part of paper, we introduce a two-threshold guard channel policy and study its limiting behavior under the stationary traffic. Then we give an algorithm for finding the optimal number of guard channels. In the second part of this paper, we give an algorithm, which minimizes th...
