hi

need help in figuring this out please.

i had a spamming issue because one of the email ids on my server
([email protected]) was compromised. The spammer used that account to send out
emails and there were several email in the queue which could not be
delivered because ISPs were blocking my server.

The puzzling part is that some other customer ([email protected]) was
sending a normal legitimate email at that time and immediately he recd a
bounce message in reply to the message he was sending (with spammer's
message content in it)

i simply could not figure out why [email protected] recd the bounced
message because he had nothing to do with any of the spam sent out.

such an incident is has occurred for the first time since i am using qmail
toaster.

this version of qmailtoaster is around 2=3 years old.

i am worried that my qmailtoaster is going bad.

i checked the qmail logs and it shows as such
