The same thing has happened to me. Two of my domains have been abused in
this manner. Let me know if you find a solution.

Subject: E-mail spoofing


I've been the victim of e-mail spoofing. Someone's sending spam using my
domain name to MSN customers.  I've notified my hosting provider, and
all they can do is give me the IP addresses of the servers/computers
where the spam originated.

So, now what can I do with that? I'm no hacker, so I can't do anything
nasty to their servers, which I'd LOVE to do - my reputation is on the
line here... Has anyone had this experience before and how did you
handle it?

All I've done so far is put a disclaimer on my web site & posted several
of the IP addresses as well... But I'm at a loss as to what to do now.

Thanks in advance!
