[cobalt-users] How am I getting spammed?

[Step Firth <step@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I have a concern over the increasing amount of spam me and my clients seem
to be getting, and some of them come through as below, looking as if there
is a mailing list running on my Raq. There are no authorised list on the
machine at all, so could it just be a tricky alias, or is someone hacked in
and using my sendmail.

Any advice or comments on what is happening, and how I can stop it (whether
is is coming from our machine or not) would be greatly appreciated.

This is a header from one such dodgy spam.

Dear Ladies & Gentlemen,

etc...

Obviously the my host and my domain are indeed my real host and domain.


Cheers for any assistance.
