SpamBayes does not send any messages. Even if it did, it wouldn't automatically send unsubscribe messages; the developers are very conservative, as evidenced by their consistent stance against automatically deleting messages. I would guess that it's more likely that some spammer is sending messages that purport to come from you (hence they bounce back to you if they can't be delivered), or that your machine has become a spambot and is actually sending the returned messages. Others on the list may have more insightful and/or creative thoughts.

Woodrough Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 12:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Spambayes] An Ever-Increasing Problem Dear Sirs: I have recently experienced a very large increase in "returned" emails as "undeliverable." I now receive over 500 each day. The SpamBayes filter, of course, places them in the Spam folder and they are later deleted permanently. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that since virtually all of this returned email is coming from servers that were used to forward spam which SpamBayes filtered, the filter program must be sending a message back, asking to be "unsubscribed" - and that the result is an ever-increasing cycle of repeated "returned" emails from those servers. Stated differently, are these new returned emails being sent to me caused by "reply" emails being sent by SpamBayes, asking that my address be "unsubscribed, which are then returned back to me as "undeliverable?" If so, is there any way to disable the SpamBayes feature that sends a reply email asking that I be unsubscribed? This is becoming a very BIG problem for my office, and I would be very appreciative of any help. Sincerely, Stephens B.
