Not much you can do about it. | This particular spammer is probably using software that | always inserts the recipient's email in the sender field - | but some spammers will spoof your email address too. Not | much that you can do about it. | | As you probably know, edsnetworks.net has IP | 207.150.192.12. | | The email you received came from IP 144.136.145.174 which is | currently listed in Spamcop - | http://spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblock&ip=144.136.145.174 | | So basically, even if the spammer does use your email | address to send out spam to others, no one is fooled. | | You can report/complain to the ISP if you want, but with the | Spamcop history it's likely that someone else already has. | | Not much else to do other than click the delete key. | | -Abigail | | | | | PL> I checked the headers of the mail and it appears that I am the | PL> sender of that mail though it's not MY name that appears.
