Re: [AFMUG] OT My 2018 Email Traffic
I had something like that happen to my personal yahoo mail a few years ago,
except that it was more like 50,000 emails. They were having some issue
with one (or more) of their Netapp NAS systems. Took them a day or two to
sort it out. In the meantime I had downloaded all the email anyway.

Re: [AFMUG] OT My 2018 Email Traffic
The question is are your forcing secure communications, SSL and TLS vs sending their password in clear text. Assuming you are running your own servers. If you are not forcing users to use secure method of password transmissions, then yes, you could be held liable. Is it going to get to that, doubt it, but still. Make sure that you have SSL and TLS setup, make sure that you don’t allow access to your mail server without a secured method. 😊 I have seen it time and time again.

Re: [AFMUG] OT My 2018 Email Traffic
I had that happen several years ago. It was before I adopted more secure password policies... lots of shared passwords. Someone logged into my Best Buy account, changed the e-mail address, changed the password, bought a bunch of shit on my Best Buy credit card. I think 7 brand new iPad Airs. Well, before, during, and after this process I got flooded with a bunch of legitimate newsletter subscriptions. Because they were legitimate, they all made it through the filters. I also then had to manually unsubscribe from all of them. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP - Original Message - From: "Ken Hohhof" To: "AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group" Sent: Tuesday, January 8, 2019 11:07:14 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT My 2018 Email Traffic I had a customer call yesterday saying he suddenly received 4000 emails in one day, plus 2 of his credit cards were “hacked” by which he means fraudulent purchases.

Shrugs, email is a easy digest for me.. I can usually make it through the email threads in between other stuff, and there is less distraction then FB.
