Hi all,
recently I've been getting e-mails from {insert name}@beer.com. There is nothing in the message part. then the next time I send e-mail there seems to be an extra e-mail. Could there be some kind of invisable return receit? some wierd program that returns a notifier to the spammer that its a legit address?
I know I don't have to open then and if it was my main machine I would not but in my off time I like to report spammers and domains that host their download adds. They bother me I bother them....
I'm just wondering if they have a new trick. Nothing wierd in my outbox and nothing to that address. Just curious. Nobody would go through all the trouble to spam multiple times for nothing.
Worse comes to worse I can set up my packet analysis stuff and see whats really going on.
any ideas?
