Perhaps a prudent countermeasure would be to redirect all POP, IMAP, and Webmail access to your corporate mail server from all of LinkedIn's IP space to a "Honeypot" that will simply log usernames/credentials attempted. The list of valid credentials, can then be used to dispatch a warning to the offender, and force a password change. This could be a useful proactive countermeasure against the UIT (Unintentional Insider Threat); of employees inappropriately entering corporate e-mail credentials into a known third party service with outside of organizational control. Seeing as Linkedin almost certainly is not providing signed NDAs and privacy SLAs; it seems reasonable that most organizations who understand what is going on, would not approve of use of the service with their internal business email accounts. -- -JH
