The main offender here is probably Microsoft Outlook, which
a) Seem prevalent in the corporate world
b) Does not show the email address when reading the mail in the preview
panel (which is the more convenient way to read the inbox, imho)

So when the CEO fraud email arrives from «"Boss owner"»
or even «"Boss owner " » there is
actually no sign at all of the spoofing in the UI.

I would have the MUA provide a panel identifying if it's a message that
came from a user in the organization,¹ from someone external that we
interact with (like a customer organization) or someone completely new.

A couple of years ago I was working for an organisation with on-prem 
exchange and Outlook 2013. I had the chance to tinker with this 
scenario. Where the email is sourced externally, the source email 
address _does_ appear next to the name.
This was true even when the email address given in MAIL FROM was the 
internal address.
For example emails received from Office 365 (OneDrive for Business 
notifications, etc) would show the senders name and email address.

If they sent the email from their own Outlook footprint, it'd be name alone.

In preparing cybersecurity training to my staff, I would ask them to 
specifically look for the email address next to the name, as a sign that 
the message was externally sourced. It generally worked.


I'll confess to not know about Outlook 2016 in the enterprise scenario, 
but the installation I use at home, shows the email address next to the 
name for every email I have (IMAP account).


I agree that the increased use in Mobile MUA makes it harder as the 
tools available to show a user that a message is as-expected or 
different, are less available and less useful with the simplified UI.  
But you can tap the icon next to the sender within Outlook Mobile (for 
Android in my case) and it shows the return email address, true for both 
internally and externally sourced messages. I don't have a platform 
where I can test that scenario with an externally sourced email with an 
internally valid email address, however.

I think you'll find that pretty much every mobile device MUA hides the
address, too.  A surprising number of people don't have a normal
computer any more, just a phone or a tablet.

Equally when sending out.



Also note that address books have their own perils:

 If it's automatically populated it can end up with malicious entries.

 Even if all the entries are for valid contacts, there is the typical
risk of sending the mail to the "wrong John".

 And even if sending to the right person, you don't want to
unintentionally send a message with confidential corporate content to
the personal gmail mailbox of your colleague!



Besr regards


¹ That could be based on email topology, or a simple analysis of the
email address against a configurable list of domains "known to be ours".

It's not always hidden, see attached.

Anyways, the main reason I assume is design and space limitations as well
as the cognitive load of the UI.

Only showing it when it may be important increases the chance that it's

Those mail clients also help scammers spoofing inbound mail, because they 
display the contact image and friendly name associated with the spoofed email 
address (which is how one company was scammed out of over $4million USD), as we

I often speak on this topic to ISP's, and I remind them, never argue with your 
customer on what is spam, and what isn't spam..



Sure, block/mark the 99% that is pretty obvious and fits everyone's definition 
of spam, by let your USERS decide on the fringe cases..



"If a message is in the spam folder, that the customer wants.. give them an 
allow sender button.. don't argue.. you just alienate the customers."



"If a message is in the inbox, and the customer doesn't want it, I don't care 
if it is from an ex-g/f, bill collector (or worse a lawyer *Teasing Anne*), let 
them click block sender"



Do your best, but empower the users .. Google had to learn that early, they 
didn't have a call center ;) But those methods we all can learn from, 
especially when the end user is paying the bills.

And I would agree with that. But i would treat the term "ISP" *very strictly*. 
That is, some humans from ISP staff who are responsible for imposing exact 
rules of spam classifications.

Not decisions of random users, not an uncontrollable AI with nobody having an 
idea how it exactly operates.

Re: [mailop] [EXTERNAL] Re: [FEEDBACK] whose address, was Approach to dealing with List Washing services, industry feedback..

2020-01-23 Thread Michael Peddemors via mailop
Too bad so many email client softwares have developed a bad reputation 
for when they ask for 'Access to your contacts', doing far too much with 
that information..


Even me, accidentally have posted a message to the mailing list, when 
meant to send to an individual.


But it is helpful, whether sending or receiving, to see if the address 
is in your contacts (known person) or not..


But we see a lot of changes coming on that front, just overheard some 
Thunderbird developers working on, and I know our team is rolling out 
more 'color coding' of addresses as a visual clue about who is on the 
other end of your communication..


(Course, I guess it should be the 'send' button that is smarter ;)

But fortunately, the cases you are talking about tend to be 'outliers', 
and usually single events, so aren't easily confused with a list washer 
reported at 100 ISP's at the same time, or 100 user accounts on the same 
server at the same time..


Only problem is we have to stop naming our kids 'michael', as my 
auto-populate doesn't start until the 9th character ;)

While most of the misdirected email I get is just a nuisance, just last 
week a lawyer at a law firm in California, with whom I have no 
connection, emailed documents in a case, with which I have no 
connection, to opposing counsel, with whom I have no connection (are you 
a detecting a theme here?) - only somehow they sent them to me instead 
of opposing counsel.  I say "somehow" because there is literally no 
connection at all - the fact that I am a lawyer was a coincidence, but a 
fun one, because I got to reply-all pointing out the error of their ways 
(and an egregious one at that). ;~)
