Not only Exchange 2K servers are affected. Let's see a snippet of my malhub:

<snip>
According to the 'Received:' trace, the message originated at:
   nctta.org (nctta-org-bk.mr.outblaze.com [205.158.62.181])    

The message WAS NOT delivered to:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
   550 5.7.1 Message content rejected, UBE, id=29788-03
</snip>

<snip>
Received: from nctta.org (nctta-org-bk.mr.outblaze.com [205.158.62.181])
        by 212.68.242.53.brutele.be (Postfix) with ESMTP id 53062264EF
        for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Wed, 27 Jul 2005 20:20:05 -0500
</snip>

As you can see in my case was a Postfix server (probably under a double mta configuration) whom is bouncing me or trying to bounce me.

Spam, the evil of the actual mail.

Anyone else seeing this?

Yes, coming from a variety of zombies.


I just recently started seeing this.  Wondering if this was due to spammers
trying to exploit servers that accept/bounce.



Probably. Default exchange(2k) behaviour is to still accept the mail and then
bounce it if it can't deliver it anywhere. I've had hits on a number of 
servers..

[200.101.188.71] F=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> rejected RCPT
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Unknown user

Also the exact same local part so they're all going to be from the one bot net.
