Bcc, bcc, and bcc... Mr. David Williams, technology coordinator for a Texas school district is being quoted in Network World article referenced:
""Considering their content (about data-breach seminars), I thought it very humorous that the TO: field of the e-mails contained over 1,200 e-mail addresses: 17 e-mails times 1,200 addresses equals more than 20,000 chances for leaks." Williams did more than merely chuckle, though, he tried to be helpful by forwarding to the Verizon sender a pair of links -- "Sins of The Internet: Not Using Bcc," and, "Use BCC field when addressing mass mail." Wrote the miscreant in reply: "I apologize for the inconvenience and lapse in judgment by not using the BCC field."" --clip-- More at http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/33767 Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
