Well this had to come eventually, but just in case others haven't seen this... One of my users received a phishing attack that offered a link to our webmail page and insisted that the user needed to login to secure their account instead of asking for the password by reply. The link actually goes to an exact copy of our webmail login page and records the username and password of whoever visits the site. I've also seen HTML forms embedded directly in the email that do more or less the same thing. Zach -- Zach Jansen Information Security Officer Calvin College Phone: 616.526.6776 Fax: 616.526.8550
