Something potentially related: (Sorry if this has already been mentioned
on the list...)
Hotmail has started to put special flags on messages that are
sent by Hotmail or MSN customer service. The things show up in the inbox
with a butterfly icon that is intended to indicate that the message
actually originated from customer service rather than carrying a fake
sender id that merely appears to be from customer service. Thus, for
this tiny, but important class of mail, users have a way of
"authenticating" the sender name.

I saw this: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/04/28/technology/28AOL.html
Summary:
"The companies - America Online, Microsoft and Yahoo - are calling for
technical changes in the way e-mail is passed around cyberspace to make
it easier to determine who really sent it and what it is about."
Did I miss something? What's this about?
