Correct me if I'm wrong. One worm some time ago even _asked_ users to enter
their SMTP AUTH credentials. And it spread quite well. Attach a spam engine 
and reduce its spreading rate to stay under the AV radar as long as 
possible and you're set.

Was it SWEN? Or one of the encrypted ZIP thingies? I can't remember but it 
happened.
