Thread: AOL or Hotmail changing Emails!?

    Default AOL or Hotmail changing Emails!?

    Well i was over at my friends house and she had to make a webpage for a college class. She wanted me to add some stuff to it so she typed in her ID and Password right in front of me in her AOL email account and sent it to my hotmail account. We both saw what she wrote.

    When i opened the email 30 minutes later it was exactly the same bisides the ID and password were completely different!

    Now we are both sure what she wrote. This was not a slight change that could have been a spelling error, but the two words were completely different!

    This is kinda scary, like something out of Orwell.

    My question is: has anyone else heard of this, and why would someone at either hotmail or aol consider a little college project so important to change the words?

    Im just a little freaked out here...

    first ask yourself who could have tampered with it in between her sending it and it arriving in your inbox.

    Ninjas, they are behind alot of the e-mail take overs. Sorry for spam, but Ive never heard of that before, but finding out who messed with it when it sent could be a good lead.

    The truth is out there.
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    Panzer,

    Why not check the e-mail Filing Cabinet of your friend? All old e-mails should be automatically stored there.
