Rookie Mistake

[jeffx]

I did something the other day I can't believe. I was at the World Congress Center and walked up to a public free access point. I opened my mail client and checked my e-mail. I read my mail, closed my laptop and left. 5 minutes later, "Fuck, what was I thinking".

Anyone care to guess my mistake?

I check e-mail via pop. The password is sent in plain text. On a wireless network anyone could have intercepted my password.

Pretty stupid.
