In general, however, I would caution you to always check the IP address in the Received: header with Whois before you "deny" a domain name. The domain name can be forged, but the IP address in the Received: header that includes your e-mail address is the only part of an e-mail header that cannot be forged. If the domain name is forged, then denying it won't stop that particular problem. You would have to deny the IP address. deedee Registered Linux User #327485 Visit "WordStar & GNU/Linux" http://www.wordstar2.com Also, see the WordStar Users Group http://cbabbage.wordstar2.com -- ___ Find what you are looking for with the Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

This is a spam message. They are trying to bypass mail filters by making it look like a MTA failure, figuring that most spam filters will pass failures directly to the admin or person they are directed out and not filter them out. The fact that you are getting this is pretty much proof that this is an effective tactic. All you need to do is add stmrewards3.com and their entire netrange, for that matter, into a firewall deny list and simply drop their shite at the door. The slimy scum, BTW, is Silver Train Media, yet another batch of swamp scum parasite working out of California. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits.
