[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 2231044, member: 5151"] FWIW, you don't have to have access to an account to send an email as another account. In fact, most email sent "from" another account never even touched the account. All you need is an open relay, and in many cases all you need to keep from getting filtered or dropped as spam is an rDNS record that matches an SPF record. OP: Was it all emails, or just some that were going "missing"? And if they really were "diverted", what provider? Of course, if people would actually use secure passphrases... the only issue they'd have is a random hash collision or a truly compromised provider... a lot faster to run a dictionary with common character substitutions than it is to look for a collision...
