I guess some AH is using my domain to send spam emails. I keep getting "Your email from xxx@bodleypix.com is undeliverable and has been denied" type notices. I'm not sending these and don't have the email addresses they are using (xxx@bodleypix.com).

Anything I can do?

    Same thing is happening to my domain. I get about 10 bounce emails a day. I don't know anything you can do about it. I've set up a filter for the bounce emails based on the common subjects in them just so I don't have to see them in my inbox, but I have no idea how to stop them. Someone is borrowing our domain to send spam.

    Had similar things happen
    My ISP sent a notice around saying they were working on the problem, and it stopped. Somehow someone was sending e-mails using our e-mail addresses, but they got it from the ISP somehow.

    Since I use a Mac, at least I knew it wasn't a nasty virus thingy attacking my computer, that was my first fear. (Someone at work had their e-mail hijacked and it took forever to eradicate that virus. That person opened all their e-mail unfortunately.)
