Email & Spam - Help
For the past couple of days, I have been receiving hundreds of :
"Delivery Failure"
"Returned mail: see transcript for details"
"failure notice"
"Returned mail: User unkown"
from remote servers. What troubles me is that each of these email contains a bogus address originating from my server; something like abdqqwxde@[mydomain.com] would be a typical 'from' address. Of course, all of these weird email addresses don't exists on my server. In addition, the body of the email (that is claimed to have been sent from my server) is obviously bogus.
I've checked my exim log, and all it shows me is that a message was delivered TO abdqqwxde@[mydomain.com] (or whatever other bogus email).
I have checked the processes running on my server with ps auxwww and nothing seems out of the ordinary.
Could my server be spamming? Do you guys have an idea as to how I could approach (and erradicate) this problem?
Since I don't want to post a super-long thread, I have not included one of the 'returned' email. If it helps, I can post the contents here.
Thanks in advance.
