It's bad ENOUGH when they spam you....[nbsp][nbsp]It's even WORSE when they spam you and know ENOUGH about you to screw with the headers like that.

[Justin]

All this means is they specified no From: header. The default is the local server name when no From: header appears, so it resulted in being your xdom at your servername... they know nothing about you in particular...

I've seen spam where they just say &quot;All_of_your_friends&quot;, making the email appear to be &quot;From: All_of_your_friends@six.futurequest.net&quot;

I hate spammers :(
