When they got a mass spam from a forged address, all the bounces end up mailbombing some poor sap who happens to own the domain in question. Because AOL is very big and is considered a target rich environment by spammers, this means that AOL ends up bouncing a lot of mail in a very short time. ---- James Lick ---- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---- http://drivel.com/ ----
