I'm recieving at least 3 or 4 emails a day which are similar to the one below :

Our UCE (spam) detectors have been triggered by a message you sent:-
To: anders.ryman@headconcept.com
Subject: NO LISCENSING
Date: Sat Sep 13 23:15:48 2003
This message has been destroyed. The detectors that were triggered are
spam, Infinite-Monkeys.

The server which is sending the message to our site is listed in a
public blacklist of badly configured or misused mail systems.

If you have any questions about this, or you believe you have received
this message in error, please contact the site system administrators.


I havnt sent these companys any mail and dont even know who they are , Any ideas or help would be appreciated..

one of my addresses is used for spoofing reply-to headers.

I get 2-3000 bounces per day. If I only download the steve@ address, there are so many that within 7 days the mailserver times out before scanning them all.
