Continuing this Thread...... I have just been hit with a netsky laden email, and the from address was [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Guess what? I have parsed the header, and it originates from tpg.com.au I have sent the TPG abuse department a nice little email, along with a copy of the headers, asking them to please get in touch with this subscriber, and offer them advice on getting rid of this infection.... or better still, suspend their account until they can prove that they are clean.... Wont hold my breath though!

I also sent a message to tpgi. And just now i got a rejection (or maybe a spoofed rejection) as if i had sent a mail from that ip address. I do get it at a different address that i don't use on mandrake lists, so it must be using "the spam database" as well. eric -- Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > ____________________________________________________ > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com > Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com > ____________________________________________________ >
