Just a crazy coincidence?

    Hi,
    I got a phishing email appearing to be from paypal so wanted to forward it to spoof at paypal.com as they request. As I forwarded it, I got the following pop up in Thunderbird and I'm just wondering is this because the content I'm sending or is it just coincidence and actually a security issue with the blacknight server that just happened to pop up for me when I sent my next email, which just happened to be a phishing email?

    Any feedback appreciated.

    They're unrelated

    I'll have to doublecheck with our technical team, but I know they were updating SSL certs on some of the mail servers this morning, which might have led to the transient connection error you're seeing

    Checked with our technical team

    The SSL cert changed, so you might need to restart your email client and accept the new cert.

    If you're still getting errors please contact our support desk:
