Exactly I would say 1/4th of my spam is bounce messages. :( Now you can
see why I don't particular like them. First I get the spam then I get a
ton more copies of the first being bounces because the jerk is using my
email address as the sender. :( It has become so bad that I now filter
all bounces and just have them sent to the junk folder automatically. :(
