We get people using one of our domains that way sometimes. Quite annoying...
badrcptto is a wonderful thing... I was using "bouncesaying" for a while,
but most of the spam double-bounces back to me that way. Might as well
let the open relay host handle it, hopefully it will help get somone's
attention on that host. ;-)
One thing we have found is that sometimes contacting the person listed in the
advertisement will help. In one instance we had a spam sent out that included
a phone number instead of any electronic means of contact. We called and
spoke with the business owner and reamed him a new one. He had outsourced
the sending, so we got to tell him just how clueless they were. :-)
