Are you the same guy that labels porn "amature". It's "amateur". "Amature" doesn't even exist, except if you interpret the "a-" prefix as "not", which then the word would mean "not mature".

I'm not too familiar with AD and Exchange. I believe you, but I wouldn't have guessed that this would be the origin.

Well, the two factor authentication I favour most is the simple SMS to a know phone number. Facebook seems to be able to send warning SMS, but it want you to use their App for the two factor authentication. I don't see that as a good idea.
I'm not all that fond of phone based two-factor authentication any way. Especially, because phones break, get lost or get stolen at the least opportune moments.

Wow, that's one side I never expected to hear. Quite interesting. I've heard of owners of email addresses that get unwanted mail from people with the same name.

I occasionally get a scam SMS, but those seem to be sent by a robot as usually I have heard of it even before I get it.
But, yeah, I'm probably lucky

In my investigations, I found such a feature, burried somewhere in the options. I never had the need. My number is public too, well, it's pretty much a Google away. Never get any SMS spam.
