I haven't read all the posts as yet, however I will post my findings. Strangely enough, I received 86 bounce backs this morning from an email address that was made redundant more than 4 years ago. All the messages were being targeted at *@austrade.gov.au and had this German gibberish in them. I didn't receive one bounce back going to any other domains or coming from any other email address.

This has really been going hard over the last hour. I'm seeing adsl accounts at xtra, iprolink and ihug, xtra dialups etc etc. As a related issue, how do people feel about a whitelist RBL of NZ mail servers, It looks like it's not good to just whitelist NZ IPs -- Simon J.
