i know how easy it is to fake a from:-field. but: if spamers are using someone else's existant email-account this account will get a whole lot of bounces 'cause spam-lists are almost always out of date. so he will get a lot "no such user"-bounces. so my one "spam detected"-bounce will not be that bad. i think that bouncing spam is the only way to get rid of searching over the "seams-to-be-spam"-messages. like i said if it is not spam the sender will get the error-message and contact me. btw: i have not set this up, yet. i am also not 100% sure if this is the right way to get rid of my spam. anyone else has some thoughts about that?? bye
