Paul/All

First of all, I'm sorry everyone's inbox got clogged up with spam when
my account got broken into. When I logged in on saturday Google had
detected that the account had been compromised and had locked my
account. I changed my google password and enabled 'always use HTTPS'
*and* 2-step verification. BTW, I highly recommend other GMail users
to do the same, as apparently a number of google mail accounts have
been compromised lately.

Between all the measures above there shouldn't have been any more spam
coming from my account, and I'm only seeing two spam emails that were
sent on saturday in my 'Sent' folder. If anyone has received any other
spam from my account since saturday I'd appreciate it if you could
forward me those emails as pmail, as in that case I will have to
follow up further with Google.
