Just to make it more interesting, here's a message that keeps popping up 
from time to time in the mail logs:

LOGIN FAILED, user=r...@foo.com, ip=[::ffff:178.239.83.191]

The IP belongs to RIM, UK.

However, the user still receives mails addressed to r...@foo.com on his 
BB from time to time.

I mean, WTF?
