I've been getting a lot of virus bounces thanks to someone named "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". That's my domain. There's no such user. So yeah, could be a dictionary attack. Also, I'm not sure with the current viruses, but a lot of them look at more than just Outlook addressbooks. They also check browser caches and stuff for e-mail addresses to both send-to, and to forge-from... :^( So, while it COULD be someone from UCD who's on 'vox' and has an infected Win32 box, it also COULD be someone from UCD who browsed a webpage with your email address on it. :^( -bill!
