Perhaps a disgruntled employee or 'friend' trying for a Denial of
Service attack.  2 people in a domain...I thought I had some small
accounts...LOL

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] dictionary attacks

Yesterday we recorded dictionary attack(s) from 42 different IP's.
For the most part these were in different network ranges.

Most attempts tried 24 addresses but several were fewer and 3 were
more.  Sometimes 10 or 15 minutes between attack and later in the day
maybe an hour.

Can't say if it was one attack or several but is continuing today as
well although at a reduced pace.  I've counted 3 so far in similar
pattern - apparently random IP's and trying 24 addresses.

Kind of funny in a way to think of the spammer expending all those
resources to harvest addresses from a domain used by 2 people.
