In Gmail We Trust

The House has mail.house.gov and the Senate has that ubiquitous underscore that never quite caught on with the rest of the email world.

Q. How much should I trust job vacancies on the Hill that do not have .gov e-mail addresses? I’m worried that something like “wisconsindemsenatorjob@gmail.com” or “westernsenatorLA@yahoo.com” aren’t legitimate job postings.

But perhaps Hill Navigator is too trusting? If there are any tales of rogue job postings, send them my way. Would love to hear THAT story…
