One of my users has been getting these about once a day. What it looks like is happening is that since AOL doesn't immediately report back with a 550 user unknown, the spammer can fill in a return address of my user, so the bounce ends up in his mailbox. The other option is that they're trying to spam this aol address, and for some reason chose this guy's address to forge from...this seems less likely than the first.No, it's the latter. It's called a Joe-Job. Do a google search for more info. Happens to me regularly.
Oh, and you should upgrade. 2.3x is well out of date, and the AWL is dumb in 2.3x. It's much smarter in 2.43.
Matt.
