Thank the gods for Socialite/Mail.app/Thunderbird, I say.
Sadly doesn't help with the commenting, however. :(
OTish: LJ's API is pretty good, considering its age. You really could combine it with something like cURL to make a "commenting once removed" sort of app (i.e. like accessing Twitter or Facebook through the iPhone app or whatever), but... who has the time, really?
Plus I bet LJ would hate it...
I stupidly assumed it couldn't possibly have been by way of LJ
Yer. That's social engineering/phishing 101, really. Find an existing trust relationship and exploit it.
The fact that LJ makes it easy for third parties to do that (even if they only get a limited number of "hits" before being found out)... tssch.
