Fifteen years ago, I had a vanity domain ending in .org. Someone else had the same domain, but the .com version. We got each other’s emails all the time.
Email addresses are hard! David Smith From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Graham Dunn Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2015 2:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [lopsa-discuss] Help with gmail technical problem Just like to add that if anyone knows a senior member of the LDS church in the UK with the same name as me, tell him that BMW has been suggesting his wife upgrade her car, the swim team fundraising has been going well, and that his son’s loan for university housing seems to be going through. Oh, and that @googlemail.com is the same as @gmail.com.

There is a Paul Graydon in Canada that keeps using my email address in the most remarkably sensitive places. It also disturbs me quite what levels of business (and sensitivity of data) people are happy doing over public email.

These are duplicate accounts. Or maybe they didn’t and this other person just thinks that is their account? They sure have used it in some sensitive places. That is why I said "something else must be wrong". I suspect you'll find there's a letter off somewhere else and they keep mistyping their address. (I see this quite a lot, and not just with gmail. One person I know has been trying to get such a mistake corrected for over 8 years now.) -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
