SPAM!! Please help

[Erik]

Hi all,

My email address is being used as the return address for an apparent spam
operation and I just received thousands of "undeliverable" messages. What
could I
do?
(I would like to keep the address.)

Thank you for any help.

Not much. In the short term, you can use a Rule to filter out the
"undeliverable" messages into a separate folder (or simply delete them). In
the longer term, it is likely that the spammer will move on and stop using
your address within a few weeks to a few months.
