haha such BS with automated messages from mail servers. We get hundreds a day saying Your mail server sent us a virus and it all bs.
You think that is bad i love how some of these retards check to see if you have an open relay. Here is there system...IF they don't get a bounce it went through wtf. I had my server setup to not bounce messages ever for testing and within a few days aol said you can't mail through us becuase you're an open relay then our provider was like we're going to take your circuit. I finally got some moron on the phone who was like sir you can't allow an open relay. I sent him a copy and paste of the telnet screen showing IT was not open and told him to fix his software and he said well thats just not going to happen lol.
