This page should have a disambiguation page associated with it; backscatter can refer to Distributed Denial of Service detection as well as the physics/optics noted.
- Currently, spam backscatter is explained in an own section; as long, as there is not more material, a disambig page seems to me too much overhead. Frau Holle 12:15, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
I suggest moving the lemma to backscattering. -- Frau Holle 12:15, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
the Mailtraq link in 'Backscatter of email spam' - is that okay, or is it too close to being an advert? I don't feel able to judge myself, but it is a link to a commercial product. Scatterkeir 00:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- I agree, this is an advert, so I have removed it and replaced it with a much more useful page on the SpamLinks site. The Mailtraq page just had a definition that came from here (Wikipedia) anyway, and then a point about how to set up their own product. Alan 19:40, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

email backscatter
editi concur with the proposal to split the email backscatter issue into a separate article. the use of the term 'backscatter' came about colloquially; giving it weight in this article actually strikes me as inappropriate. Anastrophe (talk) 17:51, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
- I'll second that. Although what the title should be I'm not sure. jalal (talk) 21:09, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- I've created the article and copied it there. However, it's being linked from Slashdot right now, so I'll leave completing the move for a few hours or a day or so; I've moved the internal links over.- (User) WolfKeeper (Talk) 01:47, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
