Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Undeliverable mails

Glen,

This is fairly normal.  When spammers send out campaigns they pretty 
much use spoofed addresses.  Unfortunately your address as well as 
others in your domain have been used thus you are receiving the back 
scatter.  On some of the servers I maintain for clients we have seen 
waves of undeliverables at a rates in excess of 1000 messages per minute.

Depending on how bad the storm is I typically will put in place a from 
filter that deletes the null sender for a period of time.

David (Declude) has posted some filters in the customer portal that 
deals with this, but I have not tested them at this time.
