This is possibly the most annoying thing ever.

Spammers are vermin, as we all know. They use devious and evil tricks to deliver their spam, breaking laws in the process. One of these things is the forging of email headers.

I have just started getting loads of email bounces landing in my account. Some stupid spammer has started using my domain name in the Reply-To: header of their junk.

This means that when the spammer sends spam to a dead email address, instead of the bounce coming back at the spammer, instead, it lands in my inbox. Bastards bastards bastards.

And there’s nothing I can do. Well, apart from be more aggressive with Procmail to try and filter the crap out.

40 bounces in the last hour, and counting…
