Virus: Email Spoofing

Email Spoofing

E-mail spoofing is the forgery of an e-mail header so that the message 

appears to have originated from someone or somewhere other than the 

actual source. Distributors of spam often use spoofing in an attempt to 

get recipients to open, and possibly even respond to, their solicitations. 

Spoofing can be used legitimately. Classic examples of senders who 

might prefer to disguise the source of the e-mail include a sender

reporting mistreatment by a spouse to a welfare agency or a 

"whistle-blower" who fears retaliation. However, spoofing anyone other 

than yourself is illegal in some jurisdictions.

Outlook 2007: Quick Flags

Outlook 2007 makes some improvements to the Quick Flag feature. Outlook 2003 provided six colored flags. Unfortunately, you couldn’t customize the names of those flags. A purple flag was always a purple flag, even if you used it for items related to your department budget. Outlook 2007’s flags are arranged by date. You can flag an item for Today, Tomorrow, This Week, or Next Week, or you can create a custom flag. Outlook 2007’s Mail view still contains the Quick Flag column. You can click the Quick Flag column to instantly flag an item for Today, or right-click the Quick Flag column and choose from any of the available flags or create a custom flag.
