This is the very reason the "hey you idiot you sent me a virus" messages
don't work.  Now if we could only get those automated messages turned off.
We to have been fighting this with SOBIG, I spent over 8 hours trying to
convince a user who only has is a custom recipient on our system that his
e-mail account here was not infected with a virus.  All because of those
stupid messages.

The way some of the Digital Viruii of the New Frontier work, This will
happen.
Lets say you and XYZ corp communicate via Email, and you are in his
addressbook.
They are hit with one of the digital predators(Virus). for every email that
virus sends, it will pull two names out of the infected one's address book.
one address is the sender, and the other is the reciepient.

We've seen this as well.
Not alot you can do.
I think I got the above right.
Anyone have anything to add?

Subject: mail relay


I have a few users that are being used as a mail relay. They get returned
mail from sites and other domains that the message they sent has an virus
or they get an NDR message.They have never emailed these people nor do
they have any idea why they are getting mail from other sites stating that
they sent them. I have looked at all settings on the Exchange server 5.5..
I have the IMC not to relay SMTP. Does anyone have any ideas what i can
do.

Thank you
