Well, that probably explains it. thanks Mike. I'm glad I have a firewall, but that wouldn't stop a thing like that. Like you said, tho', it's probably harmless, just made me wonder. Sally

That can happen when somebody has a virus or other malware on their machine and it happens to harvest your address from their hard disk. If you've ever posted to even one mailing list like this one or the ones at Yahoo!, you're address is going to be on quite a few hard disks around the world. So, the message goes out from the infected machine with your address forged on it, and happens to get sent to a bad address. *You* end up seeing the bounce message, as if you'd sent it. Annoying, but not particularly harmful... I hope! Be well, Mike D.
