If you have received spam from abbygoldsmith.com...


My site has been the victim of a SPAM Joe-Job.  SPAM is being sent out fraudulently using non-existent email addresses at my domain as the return address.  I DO NOT SEND SPAM.  Never have, never will. 

If you take a look at the email headers you will discover that the SPAM did not originate from my server.  For example:

Return-path: <ba.tabbert_gj@abbygoldsmith.com>
Received: from h24-71-214-55.cg.shawcable.net ([24.71.214.55] helo=ozjokes.com)
  by host02.ipowerweb.com with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1)

id 1AMN5k-0002Ck-00
for user@agcc.com; Tue, 18 Nov 2003 23:49:37 -0800
Message-ID: <159f01c3ae71$3fbc0792$808f237a@nxsdefs>
From: "Blythe A. Tabbert" <ba.tabbert_gj@abbygoldsmith.com>
To: user@agcc.com
Subject: Please don't be angry

The previous message appears to come from ba.tabbert_gj@abbygoldsmith.com (who doesn't exist, by the way).  In reality, the message was sent from 24.71.214.55, a Shaw Cable Internet user.  Chances are that the Shaw Cable Internet user's computer has been hijacked in order to send SPAM. 

I apologize if you have received SPAM that appears to come from me, but since I didn't send it, there's not much I can do.
