Interesting hack via OS-X Yosemite's Spotlight search

Mac users are familiar with Spotlight. Most users might be familiar with web bugs, they're an invisible 1 pixel square graphic in an email that loads from a server that identifies you as a user and your ISP's IP address when you open an email (that's how you get email messages pleading 'Please don't go away!' from companies). In a nutshell, apparently there's a weakness that can be exploited to let someone search all of your Apple Mail emails remotely.

Solution? Two come to mind. First, go in to Preferences/Spotlight and turn off the ability for Spotlight to search your mail. Second, don't use Apple Mail. And it's always a good idea to have a firewall between you and the internet, but that's not an easy proposition to manage.
