It's a security hole, but not a fault of Imail. If the ISP has any customers on AOL, they have been forced to turn on the "Ignore Source Address in Security Check" feature.

You might inform the woman about forwarding E-mail links, or logging out of her account after forwarding.

This was weird. I checked my Wordpress referrer links today and one of
them was from a mail.domainname.com account. I clicked the link and it
took me into this woman's Imail message. Apparently, someone had
forwarded my blog entry to her in an email, and she clicked the link
to pass through to my site. With another click on the Menu option, I
was into her entire IMail account. I can see she has 18 messages,
using 5MB of disk space, etc.

Is this an Imail security hole? (it looks like it might be 8.5)

Did the ISP screw up when they installed this?

Do I alert them?
