Can some one explain or direct me to a good link that explains Phishing and Spoofing, Are they the same thing. <br />
<br />
I know what Phishing is, but the part I'm kinda of confused about is the way the emails comes in. <br />
Yesterday we got emails from a Wells Fargo address like.. john@wells.fargo.com. &nbsp; so it looks leiget from the address. But once we see the email we totally know its a Phishing email, but what i don't get is when we look this email up in our spam filter its shows the actual email that it came from and not john@wells.fargo.com.<br />
<br />
Example, in our spam filter, it shows.. &nbsp; something like this. &nbsp; &nbsp;fake@email.com as the actual sender and doesn't show john@wells.fargo.com. &nbsp; How can some one do this, and is there a way to protect from this. And is this considered spoofing?<br />
<br />
thanks for any help

General Question about Phishing and Spoofing

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

Various techniques are used to prevent email spam (unsolicited bulk email). No technique is a complete solution to the spam problem, and each has trade-offs between incorrectly rejecting legitimate email (false positives) vs. not rejecting all spam (false negatives) - and the associated costs in time and effort. Anti-spam techniques can be broken into four broad categories: those that require actions by individuals, those that can be automated by email administrators, those that can be automated by email senders and those employed by researchers and law enforcement officials.
