Email spoofers

For the last several weeks my inbox has been cluttered with thousands of "undeliverable" messages pertaining to a spoofed hadafew.com email with the subject "Hello Von Mira" which has been pounding hapless recipients in Germany.

Suddenly that's all stopped and I'm now being bombarded with messages from spurious individuals at silvercash, dannicash, drbizzaro, and many others, all with viruses attached (thankfully all were removed by NAV).

The point is - I know that spoofing is behind it. But, as Michael Caine apocryphally said, "Not everybody knows that!"

Anybody know how to stop the spoofers?
