Hi Hamish, When you say hijacked do you mean that someone has actually stolen your account using your username and password and therefore you can no longer access it? Or is someone just sending email that purports to be from you? >From the way you describe it sounds like it may be the former. Let me know directly and I'll see what I can do to help you out. If it is the latter, there is nothing that can be done basically as when an email is sent the there is no verification from the receiving email server that the sender is actually who it says it is. In the mean time I've checked the various blacklists for your mail server (blimps.fsnet.co.uk mx is an alias for fsnet.co.uk) and none of them are black listed, so any system that uses one of the black lists should not be blocking on this basis. Matthew [1] A mail server can actually check the domain name of the mails reported sender against the IP address that is connected to it, however this is not normally enabled as anyone running a private sending server that has network address translation would be blocked and other interesting setups that often occur.
