IMAP attacks continue

[Daniel Senie <dts () senie com>]

The frequency of IMAP attacks is increasing, and the number of IP
addresses scanned per attack seems to be increasing as well. In the last
24 hours, I've been scanned by:

        fermi.math.csi.cuny.edu
        c149.lib.uci.edu
        sockeye.cob.calpoly.edu
        quebec.upa.qc.ca

Anyone upstream of any of these able to add a Sniffer? It'd be
interesting to see if someone is connected in via telnet or ssh and
launching the attacks remotely. With all of these types of attack in the
last several days, the systems doing the attacking have all been ones
that were compromised.
