greeting card malware?
This isn't specific to PowerMail, but I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to solve this problem. For the past several weeks I've been getting a lot of e-mail dumped into my Spam folder with the subject indicating delivery failed. They are from addresses I don't know and are responding to an e-mail from my domain (using a random name, for instance: hpbxx @ gerberstudio.com). There is often an attachement named something like Greeting Card.exe involved. As far as I've been able to find out I seem to have been infected with the Happy New Year worm, but I haven't found a solution for OS X. Does anyone know where I can get more information? Thanks.

Look through the headers. Look for a Lookup warning. It may show that it is from someone else: X-Lookup-Warning: MAIL lookup on [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not match 201.69.126.198 If your server doesn't perform Lookups, look for the originating IP and see if it is from your domain: Return-path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from smtp.-snip-.com (201-69-126-198.dial-up.telesp.net.br [201.69.126.198]) I would guess that it is NOT coming from your network.

Your email address has been spoofed. I have 2 domains that have NO outgoing email server at all and I get returns all the time. I just ignore them. There is absolutely nothing you can do about this.

There is absolutely nothing you can do about this. Most email servers can catch a fraudulent email address and bounce it. There is one thing that can be done, at least if the emails are advertising something. Once when my domain was spoofed and I had to deal with around 20,000 bouncebacks over the course of a week, I was able to use WhoIs to track down the ISP of the pharmaceutical site being advertised. Don't go after the spammer -- you can probably never find it; go after the advertiser. They have to have some place for a person to contact in order to make their money -- so hit them there. Once I had the internet provider of the advertiser, I sent a nicely worded cease-and-desist letter claiming if they did not shut down the site, I would have to contact my lawyers to complete papers filing for fraudulent use of my corporate identity. Yeah, I don't know if such a thing exists, but pad it out with some legal mumbo jumbo and it sounded good. :) They shut down the advertiser's site. I still got bouncebacks for a while, but I was much more satisfied. :) -- Michael Lewis Off Balance Productions [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.offbalance.com
Re: greeting card malware?
Thanks for all the responses. For the several weeks this has been happening I've been assuming this worm was a Windows problem and that my address was being spoofed. But then I came across a message that had been returned from a client's domain. Granted this is a huge company with any number of people and several websites--but I was alarmed at the coincidence (at least, I hope it was a coincidence). So I wondered if some malware out there had finally found it's way to OS X in spite of no mention of both it and Macintosh on the security sites I check when something like this comes up. I appreciate those familiar with these problems answering so quickly. It sounds like I have to endure these things until someone(s?), somewhere takes care of it on their own computer(s) and there's nothing I can do about it unless I want to track down the advertised ISPs and contact them to put a stop to it. And there is no way I can determine who's computer it was that snatched my domain for it's own use. In the meantime, I'll check out ClamXav and HenWen to see what they offer in terms of peace of mind.

Thanks for the pointer, Michael. I also followed the link on that page to Why is SpamSieve not catching my spam? tutorial. My filter was set to only operate if the From,Sender or Reply To: address was not in my addressbook. I noticed that some of the spam not making it through was being marked Good automatically in the log for various reasons or possibly not being evaluated, so I've changed the filter setting to Always as suggested on the Why...? page. Initial tests look promising, and I'm sure SpamSieve will quickly pick up on my common email correspondents. I turned on the false negative message saving in case it doesn't work out, so I can report more. One interesting thing: The Why...? page says: To test that the rule works, select a spam message in your mail program. Use the Train Spam (Apple Mail or Entourage) or Mark as Spam (PowerMail) command to tell SpamSieve that it is spam. Drag this message to your inbox and select it again. Then manually apply the rule [Spam: Evaluate]. However, every time I drag the spam to reapply the rule from the Filter menu, the log shows that I am manually choosing to make it NOT spam again. There is a setting in PowerMail to manually mark as good any mail dragged out of the Spam folder, so that could be a bit confusing. Once I found that setting, I figured I was fine, so I'll wait to see if it gets a real false positive now before I drag-and-drop from the Spam folder. You might need to update the page to note the setting and tell people to uncheck it to apply this test. I've begun using Mail a lot for another account and have read SpamSieve can handle both mail clients at once. I may set that up soon.
