Unusual amount of Bounced Spam!!

system · February 5, 2007, 5:36am

Hi folks,

Over the last few days every time I send/recieve I get a large number of bounced emails with typical spam subjects.

I’ve looked on the server for unusual processes or files in the temp locations but nothing looks out of place.

Can anyone recommend steps I can take to check the mail server isn’t being exploited by some idiot somewhere in the world?

Your box/domain is probably used as part of a faked mailheader…

The b*stards. :mad:
