Anything I can do? CRAFTY SPAMMING - still going on this morning
Yesterday, all afternoon someone has been sending out Mortgage Loan SPAM to thousands of users on MSN and AOL. To make matters worse, they are forging in the mail header, OUR Mail Server address as the Sender and the Reply addresses... so when any mail gets bounced - which is plenty MSN and AOL mail servers send the error message back to "sending mail server" or "us" I have been getting about 20 error messages back per MINUTE. It also fills up my Exchange Log file I finally setup a rule to permanently delete them - I had over 1200 but this prevents me seeing legitimate error messages. My inbox flashes every few seconds as it come in and then gets deleted. I was hoping that they will have given up by this morning, but it goes on ARGGHHH what a waste of time and energy... FYI: There is also something called Mail Relay, where hackers use your mail server to actually send the message but I checked with some internet mail relay testers and our server will not allow it. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?
