I'm volunteer webmaster for a small local not-for-profit venture hosted on a local volunteer-run freenet. As webmaster, I inherited the site's old URL and email address, which gets a lot of spam (legit email at that account is probably &lt;5%). That's not the question, though.<br> <br> Occasionally I'll get Joe-jobbed, getting spam which appears to be from me at that address. This will usually come in a batch with literally hundreds of other spam, quite a lot of them presenting themselves as from that same domain, and many of them with viruses attached.<br> <br> Is there any easy way to find out if any of the accounts at this domain are <em>actually</em> sending any of these emails, aside from looking through the full headers of each and every one? I'd love to find the source of the problem and bring it to the freenet's attention, if anyone there will be able to do anything about it (like suspending an offending account). tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.43872 Mon, 07 Aug 2006 15:11:05 -0800 email joejob joe-job spam spamscript Tuwa
