Yeah, no password needed. Yahoo mail and nearly all other web based e-mail passes through the network as clear text. Very easy to read, very easy to snoop specifically for web based e-mail traffic. My company does it all the time. snoop -o <filename> grep yahoo, excite | less [This message has been edited by Code-Code (edited December 29, 2000).] | ||

Hushmail's unencrypted mail uses the SSL protocol, so it cannot be read openly on the network. | ||

if your company has the right tools they can read SSL, of course it's not in plain text and will take a few days to see it, but can be done. ------------------ | ||

True. But they'd have to get the session key for each e-mail seperately. Not something I have my guys waste their time on. Too many man-hours to find out some bloke is having an affair or mail ordering marital aids. |
