Someone is spamming "from" my domain.
Hiya,
This afternoon I found out that there is a person spamming email accounts with my domain in the from field. So I get all the 'Mail delivery failure' emails in my inbox. And my domain gets a 'bad' name. Whats pretty bad because i use it for everything. ( online buying, submitting ) What can i do about this? kind regards, Tom van der Weele |

We have had it done everyday for almost 2 years at GreenguyandJim. I have been told there is nothing you can do about it but...other than a bunch of returned emails, there have been no other adverse effects.

The spammers have discovered one of my domains (which I will not name here) and every hour I have dozens of emails from postmasters around the world kicking it back to me since it's my domain.

Ya, seems it happens to just about every one at one time or another. I remember a time I got thousands or return mails, cant imagine how many they mailed. Of course a couple angry people e-mailing me.

It happened to me too.. One time I got a load of emails every 15 minutes for about a day. I looked at the returned emails and the ref link on it all went to a adult cartoon site that asked visitors to join using Paypal. I think I wrote an "I'm going to fuck you if..." email to the hosting company.
