The only problem I have with this and a lot of other coverage of the
cracking is that it makes the assumption that e-mail normally is
secure.  The hotmail cracking makes things a lot easier, but reading
other people's e-mail is still a juvenile task, as is faking their
address.  That's what pgp is for.
