In my case i have seen aprox 5000 bounces from mailservers around the world during the last week bouncing back to my mailserver..
The sending address in the mail that bounced is still <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> where "someuser" changes all the time.. "someuser" does not exist at all.. Would that still have something to do with SOBIG.e? In some cases there seems to be a attachement. In other cases there is viagra ads within.. /SqM > The email you included ins't spam, its SOBIG.e. > > Jerry > http://www.syslog.org > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Michael Long" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, June 29, 2003 11:50 AM > Subject: [SAtalk] Spammers using bounces and encoding > > > I know this isn't a new thing necessarily in the internet world, but its > new for me.
