Same reason I did I imagine :-) I had two batches of the junk quite a while back, spaced by a week or so. I associate the problem with google apparently storing failed mails and bouncing them repeatedly - IMBW of course. I was irritated enough to put a specific rule in my mail server to refuse the junk - and checking my mail logs, I see from last night oATNNbD9044367: Nov 29 23:23:48 data sendmail[44367]: Milter: from=<[email protected]>, reject=554 5.7.1 SPAMCHK054 dloveless bounces sent here wrongly! (same thing sent many times) Nov 29 23:23:48 data sendmail[44367]: from=<[email protected]>, size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=mail-vw0-f41.google.com [209.85.212.41] And the previous one was on Nov 25th. So they're still coming; at least I don't see them now!
