      If you think about it, really no has a private email address. . .

      [email protected] eventually will hit a live mailbox. . .

      Not to mention that your email address has been sold countless times already.

        Eventually you'd think that the people who are buying my email address would get the hint. I don't buy anything.

            They always say it was something unimportant and then two years later we will find out that there were a couple of million credit card numbers too in the database.

                  Credit card numbers, heck we'd be lucky if it also doesn't contain personal details like your residence address, DoB etc.

                    I would assume that veaam licensing is generally too expensive for a credit card purchase. PO purchasing is much more likely. I guess for some small customers, credit cards payments are possible

                      Unlikely for a corporate account.

                        Unlikely doesn't mean impossible. . .

                        Experian anyone. . .

                          I agree cause I'm the same way.

                            For example, it will hit John Smith's email at domain.com!

                            I bet that's real.

                              Almost a week old. Peter McKay, co-CEO, sent out an email last week after the fallout.

                                But surprisingly, no one posted about it here.. Or were there comments in another thread?

                                    I did not see anything about it in our Partner communications until this thread and I sent a quick question to our rep. The above was their reply.

                                        No. I just went through all of our Veeam correspondence with nothing about it there.
