MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / August 2005stolen internal e-mail address
One of our managers is getting spam that appears to be sent from him to him and therefore can't be added to the blocked sender's list. How can this be remedied and is there larger damage being done that we don't know about? Check the header of the mail item. It'll probably show that it came from the outside world from either a spammer or someone infected with some virus. I get emails from myself all the time because of those things. > One of our managers is getting spam that appears to be sent from him to > him > and therefore can't be added to the blocked sender's list.

Does any of the other info in the header like the server path it took The full Internet header (shown in the Options dialog - right click on a mail item and choose Options) should have stuff like this in it: Received: from breeze.mail-list.com ([64.241.105.8]) by mail.someplace.com (ISP Mail 3.0) with ESMTP id BIG38540 for <vince@omegageek.com>; Thu, 18 Aug 2005 13:52:14 -0400 Received: from fijo.mail-list.com ([68.92.51.8]) by breeze.mail-list.com with esmtp (Exim 4.24 #1) id 1E5oFA-00077A-G7; Thu, 18 Aug 2005 17:31:56 +0000 Received: from announce by fijo.mail-list.com with local (Exim 4.10 #4) id 1E5oE6-0002Wr-00; Thu, 18 Aug 2005 17:30:50 +0000 > The header shows it comes from him. Now what? Thanks. |
