Based on how you present the problem, I draw the conclusion that you're
not the system administrator. You need to contact your system
administrator for support. I'm sorry, but this forum won't be able to help
you.

All I ever saw was the black hole post. I didn't see any post with headers
and full information. Nevertheless, the problem most likely lies outside
SquirrelMail (which is the web user interface only). If you have the same
problem with other clients, SquirrelMail (and the other clients) can be
excluded from the equation. My guess is a misconfigured MTA/spamfighting
solution, but the problem might lie elsewhere.

Thanks for the response, but I am still concerned you are missing my
concern.

It seems that SOMEONE is specifically targeting SquirrelMail web
application users.

At the very least, admins should know that if the link I provided is
malicious, the chance is high that users are going to come to them with
the information that they updated as requested by SquirrelMail.org and
things went south.

That's all, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and educate my users.

Maybe I was a bit sloppy when I read and answered your mail.

Thank you for your concern. The SquirrelMail Project is aware of that our
name and graphical design is used to harvest account credentials, and
we've had several news items about it at <squirrelmail.org>. I'll write
something about it at our site again. We are also trying to shut down the
phisher, but that's easier said than done since it's quicker for him/her
to open up malicious sites and send out spam than it is for us to have the
ISP:s shutting him/her down.

Please note that the SquirrelMail Project never sends out unsolicited
upgrade notices. To receive those you have to subscribe to our mailing
lists or a third party site such as Freshemeat.
