"joe job". A mail abuse criminal has forged your domain as his envelope
sender.domain using your domain.

If the localpart@ is unknown, Imail will reject (but such "attacks" can
reach DoS levels).

If the localpart@ is known user, then you've got a real mess. You then try
to filter the messages at domain level for headers or body strings to reject.
