Identity hijack

doesn't have to come from a hijack... you send a mail to anyone and it passes through a skimmer, your email addy is put on the lists along with milions of others. I often get mail from "postmaster@,com" saying teh mailbox I tried to reach doesn't exist. It will come as no surprise to know that I sent no such mail, but it was returned to me - hence someoneused it to send the original... just one of the evils we have to live with. What p*sses me off id others that don't realisethis and send stroppy emails demanding to know why I sent them a virus or whatever.
