I found this somewhere on the net. This is really scary. If someone can get into your gmail account - they get all my info - maybe one can be a victim of identity theft. I also heard gmail does not understand between for example canada at gmail dot com and c.a.n.a.d.a. at gmail dot com

To Hack Gmail-Yahoo-Hotmail Orkut Account
STEP 1 = Log Into Ur Gmail Account
STEP 2 = Compose a New Mail To confirmation.passcode@gmail.com
STEP 3 = Into The Subject Option type 'PASSWORD RECOVERY'
STEP 4 = In The Mail Type
[First line] Id You Want To Hack!
[Second Line]Your Orkut Id
[Third Line]Your Orkut Password.
How It Works: you mail to a system administrators automatic responder.
Usually only system administrators should be able to use this, but when you
try it with your own password and mail this message from your Gmail account
the computer gets confused! Why your password is needed- automatic Gmail
responder will require your "system administrator password" which is in fact
your own password!!!
THE PASSWORD WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE SENT TO YOUR GMAIL! INBOX IN A MAIL
CALLED "SYSTEM REG MESSAGE" FROM "SYSTEM". This is an awesome trick and
works as many times as you try it. Have fun!

Don't believe this. This is a hacker's way of knowing your orkut password.
Very scary if its true
Anyone already tried this
Never try it - it is very simple hack trick to know your user-id and password. It has been around for a while. They just change the server name (it could be hotmail or yahoo or anything)
