I tried to email her privately but was bounced by the AOL mail
server because that user "wasn't accepting mail" from my email
address.  I checked the headers and everything, and it looks legit
to me.

Anyway, I don't know where the AOL users come from, either.  I would
guess that they google for "change password" or something, find an
archived post on debian-user, and send off an email without at all
understanding what they're doing.  They just have no clue.

We have all been geeks for long enough that we don't understand what
it is like to be completely ignorant and afraid of computers.  These
people have no idea what Debian is, so they don't understand where
their question is going.  Have a little pity.
