D'oh!

I just received email from "Second Life" that was clearly spam.

The actual body is was random junk referencing "Second Life" a few times, with an image attached that was just an ad targeting "Investors and Tradors!" for some financial company.

Seeing as they knew I was a Second Life user, I'd think this is related to the database break in. if a spammer aquired a bunch of Second Life user's email addresses, well, that sucks.

Do you have any who is was, or any idea if this is related?

Steven, I'll ask one of our email experts to look at this and let us know what it might be.
