Hi Stefano, Yes - pyramidetechnologies.com is my domain.
Oh - I think I understand what you are saying. Someone sends Spam to pyramidetechnologies.com But the person they are sending to is not here. So James creates a message and puts it in outgoing, to let them know that the recipient is invalid. They block the return message (Probably because my ip is dynamic) causing James to keep trying to send the message. Then mail starts to queue up in outgoing/ I tested this earlier with 10 threads and with only 10 threads outgoing/ keeps trying to send email to recipients who are rejecting it presumably using all 10 threads, so that other email does not go out. Great to know I'm not hacked though. Whooessssh. I guess I'm just going to have to purchase an alternate SMPT port or something from my domain name provider. Thank you very much for reviewing that, - Ole --- Stefano Bagnara <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Are you sure you have been hacked? > > I understand that "pyramidetechnologies.com" is the > domain for your > james server, right? > > Then the mail you see in the outgoing is a simple > bounce that james > create because it received a message for some > invalid recipients on your > domain. > > The abstractNotify mailet create such a message to > be sent to the > original sender to let him know that his message has > not been delivered. > > That said I don't think you got hacked, or at least > this mail has > nothing special to lead us think so. > > Stefano > > Ole Ersoy wrote: > > Hi, > > > > A few days ago James was getting blocked up.
