VMs smtp authentication checks are rare so you can send mail as any valid name in the system for months even years until the server suddenly asks for a password and you find that yours doesn't work. Of course you *could* wait until the genuine user supplies it. (on 26th July?)
Happened to me, I could even send mail by setting myself as "postmaster@virgin.net"
