Google as perfect anonymous emailer and how to block it
So I did the test
I went to that adsense page where you can invite your friends by an online form
Mailed from whatever nonexistant email adress (no check)
changed even the text of the (non blocked) message (didn't try to put in links or script because of legal reasons)
and send it to whoever (no control if it existed)
isn't Google a wonderful institution that it is so preoccupied with our privacy that it gives us the perfect anonymous emailer.
I could even probably use it to send a message to a wrong emailadress to get some serverinfo at another address. Didn't try it but it wouldn't surprise me.
The link - search it yourself. You are grown ups
meanwhile security people can block it by blocking any message coming in from @proxy.google.com or 72.14.219.4 I don't know if gmail comes the same way, this is to be tested at your own risk. But let us know if this ain't the case.
