and many others. Is this a breakin attempt? Or is this normal? I do
not know any of the e-mail addresses.
Thanks,
It's undelivered SPAM which your mail server is trying to bounce back to
the sending machine. In low quantities, it's annoying but harmless. In
higher volumes, it can put a drag on or even DoS your SMTP box. Some
combination of SpamAssassin, virus-scanning, Amavisd, or even
greylisting will help....
