Hello Jerry,

The spoofing of your domain name in the spam e-mails has nothing to do with 
your security settings, and the spam e-mails are not coming from your computer, 
and probably not from your ISP. The spammers are sending out the e-mails from 
their computers or more likely zombies. They use legitimate domain names like 
yours to get around spam filters.
Bank and financial domains are heavily spoofed.
How to stop it? You could use the e-mail routing information to try and trace 
the e-mail back to the sending ISP. Then ask the sending ISP to shut down the 
spammers account. But if it is coming from a zombie computer? There have been a 
few spammers prosecuted in the USA. But the short answer, there really isn't 
anything you can do about it. The problem is spammer can live anywhere, use any 
ISP located anywhere, use zombie computers, and close and open accounts at will.
What really needs to happen is people need to stop responding and buying things 
from spam e-mails, and that is not going to happen.

Sorry,
Mark





It seems that someone has taken my e-mail address and is using it to 
send out unauthorized messages. All of our security settings are in 
full force so we don't know why this is happening. We will try and 
figure this out as soon as possible. Our apologies for any offensive 
e-mails that may be being sent.

If anyone has a suggestion or idea as to why this is happening let me know

Jerry, Orchids Limited.
