What could you do if someone sent spam specifing your domain as return address? - GoFuckYourself.com

Opened my outlook today and got 480 "nondelivery reports". Holy cow!
Looks like someone sent spam specifing my domain in return address and did it by purpose (why?). I can only imagine the total amount of letters sent, if I got just 480 non-delivery letters in my mailbox.

Any suggestions how to prevent worst consequences in this shitty situation? Thanks.

get rid of your catch-all email and only accept to designated addresses.

Won't prevent them from doing what they are doing (nothing you can do about that), but at least your in-box won't get filled.

I've had that happen before... do what baddog said, weeding through a catch all box is a pain.

Fuck i hate spammers...
