Is someone using me to Spam e-mail?
SteveL
messages from various servers. All saying that attempts by "me" to
send to various people have failed. I have sent no such e-mails.
Opinions anyone? If some is using my account how do I stop it?
I'm changing my password now. Hopefully that will help.
Anyone else had this kind of thing?
Cheers,
Below is just one example -

That's very interesting. I received spam from a .it address,
apparently routed through exit.de, and complained about it.
This was a week or two ago.
My God, are they trying to get back at /me/ by triggering a
mailbomb to exit and getting demon blocked ?
Simon.
