I don't have any expertise, Paul, but I think this week's issue of  
_TidBITS_ has an article which might help:

"Change your Passwords: Email Account Hacking on the Rise"

which is at <http://db.tidbits.com/article/11376>.


TidBITS is Apple-centric, but I think that in very large part this  
article is generally relevant.
