are those the only lines they sent you? Weirdly, we got a report like =
this today as well with the first (out of 8) sample line showing the =
exact time stamp (23/Feb/2015:14:53:37 +0100) and the exact query string =
(/?cmd=3Dinfo&key=3Df8184c819717b6815a8b8037e91c59ef&ip=3D212.97.34.7) =
which makes it a bit strange to be a coincidence. There is a webserver =
running in a jail on the reported IP address, but I can't find any log =
lines on our side that could be related.
We asked the email.it folks for details, but haven't heard back from =
them yet.
