I have started to receive 'undelivered mail', 'mail not delivered' type
emails by the dozen daily!

I obviously have a bug of some sort, can anyone help me to remove it please?

Kind regards,

Alan




You can't do anything about it. Some spammer is sending e-mails using your e-mail address in the From header. The other problem is the stupid admins that reject undeliverable e-mails by sending a NEW e-mail *after* the mail session is over. They should be rejecting the undeliverable message DURING the mail session so it the status goes to whatever sending mail server is connecting to the receiving mail server rather than blindly accept the message and then find out it is non-deliverable and then stupidly assume the return-path specified by the spammer is valid. Stupid spammers. Stupid mail hosts.
