b0b;
You also need to be on guard for "Joe Jobs", in the From and Reply To fields, using an account on your domain (may be invalid). This is where a spammer forges your email addresses for your domain, and appends them to spam blasts. The idea is that people who complain will bitch you out, thinking that you are the spammer. These people use AOL as their ISP. This is happening to me this week. I am getting bounces from spam sent to Japan, forging one of my spammed email accounts.
