While I do not agree with the "doom and gloom" garbage Linford spews in this 
article, and I don't think this is really a "new" approach... wasn't there 
some MAPI exploits that were used to do this several months ago? 

But this was sent to me by a colleague and is an interesting read, esp some 
of the clueless "talkback" comments.

We currently monitor email traffic via snmp/mrtg so would notice an abnormal 
increase in outgoing mail trafic pretty fast. I used to have a throttle on 
mail messages per time increment back in the day (pre-Mimedefang hehe, here 
for after known as P-MD hehe), perhaps it is time to resurrect that?
