Re^3: Email security for monks?

what stops an intruder from changing your e-mail address twice (...)

Nothing, but you would still receive the notification for the first change. If the old (previous or original) address is invalid, the mail gets bounced - bad luck (or doesn't matter in the more likely case you wanted to change the address because of that).

I know it's a weak proof, thats why I put it in quotes, but I think the notification might be a good feature.

I see, it is just like some "alarm": at least you know you are being burgled. CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]
