Your observation is absolutely correct. I changed all IPs, hostnames, 
and email addesses to ********* (if you read through my whole post, I 
explained this). :) So you know, my firewall's DNS name was simply 'fw' 
(fw.mydomain.com). The ******@fw represents the SNMP community name at 
the device. It is *not* a wildcard to try and circumvent knowing the 
community name.
