I just fixed a problem like this. I checked my headers, and the email
was spf approved from google. I had included google so I could get some
mail forwarded by them back awhile ago, but it's not worth getting this
spam. Someone has figured a way to use gmail to spam from their
servers, looks like to me.
spf=pass smtp.mailfrom=gmail.com;
I removed google from my spf line, and it's helped.

All -
I am suddenly getting hammered by a BUNCH of spam that appears to be
from me. It scores low, and even though I keep feeding it to Bayes,
it's still not hitting the threshold to be marked as spam.
When I check the headers, it's coming from multiple random email
servers, but many appear to originate from hotmail/outlook.com. So
from outlook.com, through some unsecured email server, then to my server.
I'm trying to figure out how to block this stuff. Something like "if
it appears to come from me, but it's not actually coming from my email
server," block it. I don't necessarily think this is a job for SA, but
if there's a rule I can tweak or a setting I can change, I'm all ears.
Thanks,
