URGENT: Receiving spam email sent from myself!

B

Bobby Edward

During the past week I have been receiving ALOT of spam email from 2 of my
email addresses (custom domain - we'll call "MyDomain.com"). My dad called
and said he's also been receiving them too! (From mostly
(e-mail address removed).) I use webhost4life as my hosting & email company.
(mysite4now servers)

I did a thorough virus scan with Avast and found NOTHING. I did a thorough
spybot check and found NOTHING.

What should I do? How can I find out WHERE they are coming from and STOP
them????

Here's the email headers of the last 6 SPAMs....

Never post real mail addresses in newsgroups. You invite even more spam and
viruses that way.

The header
Received: from ppp-58-9-28-41.revip2.asianet.co.th [58.9.28.41] by
mx249j.mysite4now.com with SMTP;

indicates that the message was routed through Thailand. The header
Received: from 87-97-201-153.2073138774.ddns-catv.pl.ekk.bg
[87.97.201.153] by mx249j.mysite4now.com with SMTP;

Indicates the message was routed through Bulgaria. The header
Received: from p578b56a0.dip0.t-ipconnect.de [87.139.86.160] by
mx249j.mysite4now.com with SMTP;

indicates the message was routed through Germany. There's no good way to
trace the real sender's origin. For situations like this, route filters
like that found in SpamPal (http://www.spampal.org/) are fairly effective.
