Trim if you wish.
I, or possibly somebody else, and I'm getting the reflection, seem to be
under some kind of DOS (Denial Of Service) attack.
Or, maybe it's just some worm gone completely wild.
I'm getting a gazillion "returned mail" or similar messages, mostly from
the same two places ... So I guess it really isn't me, and I'm just
getting the reflection of merely my *share* of the crap.
I suppose several people out there (OK, thousands actually) have my
email address, and so the worms harvest them and put me in as purported
sender.
This happens all the time, when like me you retain the same email
address for years. I usually get ten or twenty a day.
But now ... 1800 in just a few hours?
And it's seems to be getting worse.
Geesh.
It's almost taking me more time to delete the responses than it takes
more to come in.
If that's just what *I* see, what are the real targets getting?
Yes, I *know* my system is clean.
