Well if you only have to type the first letter, I don't need brute force.
Just some trial and error...

If for example your password is "washington" you can get into your account
using "washing". I would imagine this would make for much easier brute force
attacks.

Does anyone here use bigmailbox.com for email for their site? Found out that
you don't need the full password to access accounts. Normally this wouldn't
bother me, but tech support said its no big deal.

Just though everyone should know before signing up. I think I'm switching to
everyone.net
