Someone appears to have "hijacked" my domain name and is sending a multitude of spam. How do I stop this?

you can't\nanyone can make an account and send mail out as anyone else. I suggest you do not have a catchall or default e-mail address and that if mail is sent to an address not specifically configured under your domain, you bounce it.\n\nResponsible spam filtering software will not give you trouble, as they block mail coming from a specific IP, specific messages or following spam patterns. \n\nIf you can identify from which smtp (outgoing mail) server the mail is being sent by looking at the headers of a message, you can find out which ISP is responsible for that IP and semnd a complaint to their abuse department.

That's a good indication of SPAM, so hit REPORT SPAM or DELETE without reading it.  There are some IP indications in the message header, so you might look there.\n\nGood luck

This is not that uncommon, someone used your address as a reply to address in a spam campaign. Irritating but not too much you can do about it.

MAil them your problem with your domain name and the package you had registered with earlier. They will give you a renewal scheme.

Hacked ? \n\nIt looks like someone has changed your DNS : go update it on your domain name supplier site. \n\n...and change your password !

It's spam. Just ignore it. There's nothing you can legally do except report it as spam.\n\nIt's over the internet...ignore it.

You might need to block the email address at the domain level as the individual is smart enough to know that if they change the email address even one byte, it will pass your filter. You can either hit the "spam" button but that will only stop that dpecific email address.  Toto the optins section for mail and put in the domain name ,  There are examples there you can look at.

Spoofing the sender's name in spam is child's play.  Spammers do it all the time, so much so that virtually all spam in the past several years has a spoofed sender.  Unless you gave your friend's e-mail address out to someone, you are not to blame.\n\nWhat may well have happened is that your friend (or someone who knows his e-mail address) clicked on a remove link in a random piece of spam.  These links don't remove your e-mail address to the spammmers' databases, they ADD it to the database!  (Yes, I've added other peoples' e-mail addresses to spammers lists this way when they made me angry enough.  One of them was the addie of a major player in the spam business; I hope he enjoys the fruit of his art in his mailbox.)\n\nOnce an e-mail address is added to a spam database it will not likely ever be removed.  I help maintain a large corporate e-mail system and we see spam hitting our system addressed to people who left the company over 7 years ago.  \n\nVirtually all spammers use machines hijacked by spyware or viruses to distribute their spam for them.  They never see a non-delivery report (NDR) and couldn't care less that most of the addresses in their database are bogus.  They get enough responses from d00bs on the 'net that makes it worth their time to continue spamming.

There are basically two places where you can work to stop the SPAM:\n\n1. in your system and its software, as suggested by above 3 responses.\n\n2. Please inform you ISP or whosoever providing you the Internet/Broadband service. They are also able to "block" SPAM. It worked with me.\n\nBy the way, I am far from an 'expert' on these Trouble Shooting, I am a victim like you and learnt (and still learning) after getting bombarded by the SPAM, Spyware and such menaces. Best of Luck!!

Check your spam folder. \n then go into options, and try deleting everyone off your blocked address list. You probably have a few contacs in there.

Hard to avoid.  Reporting spam and getting a spam blocker will help but I'm afraid it's pretty tough to avoid completely.

If I remember right, IANA is like ARIN for the asian pacific domains.  If it is truly a phishing site, and not just spam, I would report it to PIRT (Phishing Incident Reporting & Terminations) at Castlecops.  \nThey have had many, many, many phishing sites taken down, i.e. PayPal, banks.  They work with the authorities that be to get rid of these thugs.  :)

It may be a spam-blocker setting.

Quite often, send addresses are faked, so you must make sure it actually came from a Yahoo account. If you're using Yahoo yourself, or a few other services like GMail, the sender should have been verified by DomainKeys. \n\nIf you're with an ISP that doesn't support DomainKeys, you'll have to view the full headers of the message in order to check it really did come from Yahoo. There is a service, SpamCop which will do this for you.\n\n"If the spam or abusive e-mail is being sent from a Yahoo! UK & Ireland account (eg: johnsmith@yahoo.co.uk) please forward the entire message with full headers to uk-mail-abuse@yahoo-inc.com. If it originates from a Yahoo! US mail account please forward it to abuse@yahoo.com. This will assist in a prompt reaction to your report."

You need to contact your service provider, it sounds like Yahoo Spamcop is at work blocking your domain. Here is a copy of info found in spam and bulk mail section:\nThis is a yahoo mailserver. The SpamCop blocklist does not list email addresses or domain names; it only lists the IPs of servers that are sending spam to our users and spamtraps. The reason that the mail server IP address is on our list doesn't have anythingto do with the specific email(s) you're sending. This is a shared IP/mailserver and spam is being sent thru this IP/mailserver by some user of the IP. Your ISP/hosting company is the administrator of the equipment on this IP. \n*Only* the owner/admin of the server can determine the precise source fthe spam and make it stop as they are the only people who have access to the logs to determine the sender.\n\nThe blocklist is automated and IPs are listed when there are spam \nreports and delisted when there have been no new reports for 24 hours. Please contact your ISP/hosting provider/outbound email service for additional information about this problem. Please show them a copy of the rejection.\n\n\n\nanother thing is if you are sending to one particular user you might try having them add you to their address book. Sometimes this will work.
