I sometimes despair of the way the Internet works ...
Have just received an email from Microsoft Email services advising me "to check the following unusual account activity" and change my password should this investigation prove to be an account highjack attempt.
In these emails, there were, identified, two alternate IP addresses.
Having nearly dived straight into changing passwords, AGAIN, I thought "No" and quickly investigated the possibility of seeing if I could ID the owners of said IP addresses.
After a couple of minutes, it became fairly obvious that the owners of the "dangerous addresses" turned out to be MICROSOFT!!
One address was ID'ed as a logon server (?) and the other was one or several email servers.
