I think some spammer found a loophole in the TMDA blocking.  They basically spoofed my email as if
it were coming from me; see the header:

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I checked my TMDA lists and the offending email <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was not confirmed.  It
seems to have passed through by faking my address.

I hope this helps you with your developments.  I am a big fan of TMDA. Keep up the great work.
  
Not a problem with TMDA, I'm guessing -- it sounds like your address is authorized to send mail to you.  Since anyone can spoof your address, and someone just did, why permit it?  When it's really you (or a program on your system mailing you), you can grab a dated address just as easily.  Check your logs and see why it accepted the message....

I note SPF actively failed this, too.....
