Processed meat product

A post wherein Bridget grumbles about how a variant of her e-mail address has been used in spoofed headers for spam, and her inbox is filling up with bounce notifications. I'm learning how to say "Mail failure" and "Out of Office Reply" in several different European languages :-)

I particularly like "Mail du har sent er blockeret af af vores mail filter"

*Sigh*

My commiserations - some spammers are presumably specialising in Cix/Pipex addresses at the moment, as I had over 2000 of these on Sunday. I'll admit that I wiped out anything that looked remotely like a bounce notification without looking at it any more closely than to identify it as such.
