I’m not a spammer, really

I started getting undeliverable message notices today at about 4:50 PM, coming to various email addresses ending in “@igetsomad.com”. All of the original emails had been sent using a forged FROM: field, and were identical very-obviously-spam messages, which was an ad for a Russian pirated software website.

I setup an SPF record on my DNS server tonight, and I have reported this to godaddy.com, my hosting provider. As of now, I’ve received 119 NDRs (undeliverable notices.) So if 119 messages (so far) couldn’t be delivered, imagine how many of these bogus emails did in fact get delivered to people’s inboxes.

More to come.
