A researcher has found a bug that allows anyone to impersonate Microsoft corporate email accounts, making phishing attempts look credible and more likely to trick their targets.

"The bug, according to Kokorin, only works when sending the email to Outlook accounts." <-- Oh, phew. Good thing no one uses those. /sigh... Microsoft...

Did something change? I was of the impression you could forge email headers all you wanted so long as you controlled the SMTP sending the mail? I've sent prank mail from Gates and such. From .NET it was as simple as changing the FROM: to whatever you want.

this is an oxymoron type of email, right? And the US Senate is upset with MS getting in bed with the CCP?
