Yah got it…the UA is having problems sending mail to folks because some unknown
number of eedjits on campus have replied to the crude phishes like
"We are the certified Arizona Edu Support Team Group Captains and have graciously
determined that your WebMail Account (Database 3324.5, Microsoft.Inc) is in need if
instant UpGrade to 2GB. Please to have sign in at the sitehttp://some.place.in.Nigeria to
effect this UpGrade soonest. Yrs. The certified Arizona Edu Support Team Group Captains

And handed over their logins (which login, btw, is the single-sign-on, keys to the kingdom,
change your paycheck direct deposit if they want to, buy shit on the UA dime username and
password combination that they demand we make a new password like 'hG55$wer$@!(99&jhhy3$'
every three months for "security".) and unleashed a hell torrent of spam on the
world.
An acquaintance just complained that he sent out promotional emails to 138,000
without setting up a rool for all the auto-replies flooding into the sending
address.
I have no sympathy for him, or those who click on the link from Nigeria.
People, seriously, wake up!
We now know how many the unknown number were: 52. At least 7 have admitted to
responding to phishing emails. I'll wager this simply means that the other 45
haven't yet fessed up.
You are not alone, apparently this is going around U of Porkopolis
