Spam Ahoy

Story location: Home / computing /
19/Sep/2007

When I check my email this morning, I was surprised to find 64 emails sitting there wanting attention. I was more surprised to find that most of these were 'delivery failure' notices, all from emails which I hadn't sent. Even more surprising was that these were all send during a brief time window between 21:51 and 21:59.

I hope nobody out there is receiving junk email from this domain, but I can assure everyone that I'm not sending any out myself. This is most likely due to spammers inserting my domain as the 'from' address. Some information about the problem can be found here.

At the weekend, Emma placed an order with a company called Cybercandy. They specialise in selling foreign sweets and snacks. One of the things ordered was a 'Mystery Box' which contains a selection of out of date food. We were impressed with the selection we received.
