Pretty sure moronic is a word. I've been using here at the office for years :) Anyway, using the same sender and recipient is a pretty old spammer trick, if you can even call it that. However, most SMTP gateways are capable of filtering out this type of garbage. Look into your gateway's filtering capability, or that of you mail server's AV software, and I bet you can find a simple way to knock that stuff down... Cheers Keith

The thing that got my interest was the using the same address in the from and to fields. I just thought it might be something new that the spammers were tring to get by blacklists.

This just started showing up in my bosses mail box.
