Re: Compromised email account?

[Jacob Bednarz <n.a.r.z.y () live com>]

Hi,
Thanks for all the feedback. It is greatly appreciated. I do not think  
it is a spoofing attack as I have items in my sent folder as well as  
drafts.

I also highly doubt it was because of a weak password. My password was  
14 characters and consisted of upper case and lower case aplhanumeric  
characters and wasn't based on a dictionary word. I have always been  
very careful with passwords and usernames.

Jacob.

In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.  We look at how SSL works, how
