We will give the politician involved a break here and assume some miss
guided IT underling did this without "adult supervision" -- but really!
The other day I got an email at lking@ about a PG County tax initiate. I
didn't think much about it because congress wrote 'political messages'
(politicians) out of the CAN-SPAM Act.
However, today when I checked the spam folder for my domain I found 5
more copies, all addressed to nonexistent mailboxes: Its called a
directory attack if this were spam, sales@, admin@ and support@ all got
copies. And just to be sure I got a copy lking@, kingl@ and l.king@ ALL
got copies.
With all these copies I took a look. I got a chuckle from the "Vote for
(me) for Council in District 6..." Everyone here of course knows we are
in District 3. We can't all be perfect I guess.
