Someone out there is sending out tons of spam pretending to be from the email wn6vs146j@curtpalme.com. As is usually the case, many of these bounce (user unknown, mailbox full, etc). So of course, I get the bounces.

From what I can tell it's not my server sending them...

Code:
Original message headers:

Received: from psmtp.com (64.18.3.138) by MVLS-EXCHANGE.mvlslaw.org
 (192.168.1.5) with Microsoft SMTP Server id 14.1.355.2; Tue, 12 Jun 2012

In the above it things that curtpalme.com is at IP 180.173.134.60 which is not true. That's an IP from somewhere in China.

Freakin' spammers.

I employed this tactic on a neighbor about 8 years ago to inform him his wireless router was not secure (factory default). About time the Chinese picked up on it.

What tactic Wan?

In this case they're just picking any domain out there and pretending to send email from an imaginary email account on that server. They're not even using my server.
