I'll assume that you don't speak for Microsoft and you don't have anything
to back up "what they had in mind" other than a personal belief.
If it is more than a belief, feel free to name names of Microsoft employees
who told you what they had in mind.
I'm done with this now. You can of course try the same argument over at
that other Exchange list if you need more abuse from MVPs.

Hi Carl,
I don't call opening a handful of ports "blowing holes". I think
security professionals know better. What Microsoft had in mind with to
keep things rediculously easy for the ill informed, that's all.
