Spam email rant!
Some utter and total bar steward has taken it upon themselves to use my domain name as the reply address for their spam efforts! 
I'm now getting lots of "undeliverable" or "unknown address" emails back with fake names to my mailbox.
I'm assuming that of the ones I'm getting back there are a higher percentage actually going to valid mailboxes and p***ing people off with
them thinking it's all something to do with my domain.
Can't think that there is any way of stopping the wotal tanker that's decided to use my domain name in this way either.

infuriating isn't it...
what'll really get you mad is when your domain gets blocked by the ISP's because it's a major source of spam email and you
won't be able to send email to anyone
Just thought I'd cheer you up a bit....
Cheers

I totally agree with the views expressed, I have a number of complete To**ers who insist on trying to purvey their wares - anything from furniture to
porn - on my website via the pages of my guestbook, a lot of it gets deleted automatically but there's still loads gets thro' I shall
probably have to close the guestbook (which has been an interesting & genuine source of peoples opinions of my car) as it's becoming a full
time job to remove the dross
You have my sympathy
Why can these people not just get a life & stop trashing everyone elses
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Yep,
I've had the same going on with my domain for about six months or more now. It seems to go in bursts - I've just had one over the last
week or so with about 30+ bounces/day which is heaps lower than the HUNDREDS I was getting in the first round
If all mail forwarders supported protocols like Sender Policy Framework (linky) the
problem could be greatly reduced. It's possible that some of the reduction I've seen is due to setting up SPF records at my domain
manager.
One thing I haven't done yet but really should is put a brief explanation on my home page that I'm not sending spam and there's
nothing I can do to stop it
