They sent me 500+ FAQ every two minutes. The problem was an 100 Meg file in my email account and another 1.5 Gigs worth of data out side the firewall. Needless to say we cut it off and shipped it to /dev/null. The problem is I am now getting email from people that are not sending the mail to me, this includes many news groups and the like. We have been tracing down all the route tables that could have been hosed. As of yet we have not found anything that suggests what is wrong. Another side effect is that a friend of mine is being sent some of this misguided mail from our gateway. If anyone has seen this problem before and know of an answer, please let me know. Thanks --
