I've been getting those too periodically. Got 1 today with my address
spoofed as the sender. It had a .pif based virus as an attachment. It =
and
another almost identical 1 with the spoofed address of a former AKLUG =
member
lead me to believe that it may be that someone on the list has a virus.
I don't thinks it's me as I have my ISP's spam filter turned on which =
has
virus filtering in it, an the only Windows box on my home network also =
has
virus checking. Both periodically have trapped viruses, so I'm pretty =
sure
I'm clean.=20

Subject: spoofing smtp?
I've been getting a lot of Mail Delivery Subsystem/Daemon/whatever
'returned mail: User unknown' kind of email, from multiple domains,
kinda like someone is spoofing my smtp. I seem to remember a discussion
about something similar a bit ago, but can't find anything in the
archives. Anyone remember about when?
I have tested my mailserver with several open relay checksites, and it
appears to be ok.
Any hints?
Thanks,
Lee
