Hi, Some son of a ***** is spamming people and using one or our websites as a return address, so all the emails that get bounced are coming right back to us, as you can imagine thats quite a lot, plus we are getting angry people writing to us.
I had a look at the emails and I see its the usual crap: viagra, prescription meds and getting collage degrees etc
What can I do about it? complaining to the sites that the spam is promoting is stupid since they are using this method to promote their crap....
Problem is we have a catch all address as the site is large and we have been using differient email ids all around the place which basically goes into one, so turning of the catch all can/would result in us missing some important stuff...
ANY ideas?
Thanks, -Ryan
Same problem with my by-tor.com domain. First thing I checked was to make sure that I wasn't an open relay...make sure the spammers aren't using your mail server. Most of the headers are forged, so tracking them down is almost impossible. And if you complain to the site that these emails are linking too, they'll just say it's not them, but someone in an affiliate program...they might even tell you that they banned that user, but can't do anything about them sending the emails. Basically, there's not much you can do save reply nicely to the people who've come to you because they got spammed.
