[Email] Does Heartbleed affect Verizon.net email?Does Heartbleed affect Verizon.net email?
Is it in the Verizon servers receiving, holding and sending my email on verizon.net?
What news from Verizon? |

tl9 - thanks for links to a general description of the problem. However, I had already read both.
The question is whether the big servers hosting verizon.net email have been affected - yes or no? Not maybe, but yes or no?
If yes, what do we do, and when should we do it?
Only 100% hard answers here - no more academic nonsense.
Thanks. |

As tl9 mentioned, without access to the management tools or the servers directly, we can't know if they are running affected versions of OpenSSL.
One easy indicator (mainly for work/corporate accounts) is that if something's running Microsoft Exchange, it is not vulnerable because it's not running OpenSSL.
Though, I doubt Verizon.net is an Exchange account. |

Thanks to posters above, but I'm still waiting for a definitive answer.
Are the verizon.net servers for our verizon.net email vulnerable?
Verizon - how can you be this obtuse? What's the actual story here? |

You could call them, or ask in their direct forum: » Verizon Direct |

» filippo.io/Heartbleed/#w ··· izon.net and » possible.lv/tools/hb/?do ··· izon.net say its all good. Verizon POP3 server is running SUN Messaging Server possibly on SPARC hardware so i doubt it would be affected as the OpenSSL version might be below 1.0.1f and the build mentions 2006 as the release year i believe (check your email source headers for the details). |

FYI the links you provide deal with http, not POP3 or SMTP. The POP3 information looks correct to me. |
