[SCA-BMDL] Recent email compromises

[Wayne Canne]

Greetings,
For the majority of you, this is a rehash of what you already know.  For
others, it may be just the "Oh, that's right. I knew that," reminder that
can prevent hours of annoyance.
With a rash of recent emails compromised on numerous lists I am on, I think
it is important to remind people of a few basic things.  You can make your
password much more secure by adding a capital letter and a number in them,
instead of simply a group of letters.  Also, please do not click on emails
from people you know with a subject that are general or don't make sense.
"Hey, check this out," "Look at this," "Wow, I'm amazed at this," etc. are
all examples of spam bot headers designed to make someone open the email.
