We’re iced in here in DC so I’ve been catching up with some industry news while camped in front of a heater and the TV.

Best of the ESPs by Forrester Research. Congrats to ET and Responsys for coming out on top. The results, as reported by MediaPost, match reasonably well with my overall impressions of the industry (so they must be right!)

Return Path is rolling out a new version of SenderScore. A welcome change for those of us who regularly refer to an IP’s sender score and find it doesn’t match other data.

CAUCE has done a series of posts looking back at significant events in spam over the last decade.

Al has a retrospective on various data breaches affecting email addresses over the last few years.

Happy New Year, everyone!
