From: "Ho Chaw Ming" <chawming () pacific net sg> I would be interested too, since we got a client who got "attacked" in such a way yesterday. We received an estimated 30,000 bounced emails alone from the fake reply to email address in a matter of hours. The data center received hundreds of ill-informed abuse reports.
Are you sure that the bounced emails that you've gotten recently aren't from the Mydoom virus? We have also been bombarded with NDR's, but it's because the virus is spoofing email addresses from our domain. You might want to look at the bouce back message and determine if this is the same issue that the original poster is experiencing.
