You should not whitelist your domain just the ip address.   Regards, Tom   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tayo Fadeji Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 12:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] Sending SPAM from account disguised to be my E-mail address Has any of you seen this? The SPAM mail sender sends an E-mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] i.e. makes it look like you’re sending yourself an E-mail so that the SPAM comes through. Of course, since our domain is white listed, such Emails automatically pass all SPAM tests. The easy way I know that the E-mail did not come from me (other than the obvious content of the message and the fact that I know I did not send myself the mail), is based on the originating IP Address. Obviously, since some of these are DHCP computers, they don’t have the same IP Address and I can’t block out a range of IP Addresses (for instance, I can’t block the IP Address range for all MSN users because then I won’t be able to receive any mail from anybody that connects to the Internet through MSN). Any suggestions or ideas on how to tackle this problem?   Thanks, Tayo.
