I'm used to, on occasion, getting a failed delivery message from an e-mail address I never sent an e-mail to. They're obviously spam with a spoofed header, and are returned to me by a mail server/spam filter that is improperly configured. Recently I've been getting several per day from all over the place.

Has anyone ales seen this type of spam in their mail accounts or is it just that some ass face out there in spam land decided to use my mail address for a while?

Of the about 300 spam messages I've received since Friday night (still in my trash can) I have three of these types of messages. I get one or two a day, it seems.

I never contemplated that a spammer would actually be using my address as the reply-to, I just assumed it was spoofed and sent only to me that way. My wife got one of these a while back and freaked out about it. That's the only one where I actually opened it and saw the spoofed header.
