Anything common about these messages that would help me find/identify them?
The only thing I've seen so far is that the X-mailer header in all of them is Microsoft Outlook Express. Different versions though. I wonder if this could be a sign the senders are BOTS. Subject, return path, source IP address, image name, image file, all vary. I've attached a sample message and image. Don't know if it will go through to the list. -- Gary Flynn Security Engineer James Madison University www.jmu.edu/computing/security
