Has anyone else seen this kind of thing?
For the last several weeks, I have been getting an email message from "postmaster@msn.com". I use Outlook 2000 as my email engine. Every message looks like this:
From: postmaster@msn.com
To: xxxxxxxxxxxx (my email address)
Subject: Delivery status notification (failure)

None of these messages (which I supposedly sent) shows up in my "sent items" folder, nor are any of the addresses in my address book. I have contacted msn and they instructed me to rebuild my email account. I have done this, but the problem continues.
Further, I ran the fix for the KLEZ variants, still no fix (although I figured it wasn't KLEZ, since KLEZ sends out messages to addresses in your address book and none of these addresses are in my book.
