How fun. Reckon my delight to ignite up the last couple of days to see thousands of bounded emails – all with my address in the From: line. It’s such an honor to witness my address associated with other lawful brands that are so proven in the fields of appendage enlargement.
Hither’s what bechances…
A spammer requires to mail spam emails and they don”t want to use an address associated with them. So, they add someone else’s address to the From: field of the email. When the email bounces, it comes to the person’s address. In this case, me.
Spoofing is a pretty mutual problem, but yet afflictive. Patently, there is little that can be performed apart from trickling the incoming messages and hop-skiping that people don”t think you’re sending the spam. I’m looking into adding an SPF (Sender Policy Framework ) record, which can also help, I hear. Any other tips?
