Bounced mail from ISP?


Recommended Posts

I am, all of a sudden, getting several of my own reports sent to my (regular) email address...

These are all SpamCop reports that I've sent regarding IP address 84.97.101.2; what I'm trying to understand is how these reports have gotten to me.

Looking at the headers, there is no evidence at all that they came through my ISP, nor to any address that I use, nor any address that I own.

Here, for example, are the headers from one of the messages that I received... it's otherwise just a normal SpamCop report:

This message is brief for your comfort. Please use links below for details.

The only possibility I know of is that somehow my mail client is pulling mail from my SpamCop account and putting it into my "Master" account - but I don't have any automation that might do this, and it's only this one set of reports (4) that this has happened to.

Even if the headers I have are forged or otherwise inaccurate, I should at least have a Received: line from my ISP, pair Networks, and my MX (merau.pair.com) host...

Anyone seen anything like this?

My first thought was that perhaps you had selected the "send me a CC: of the report" in your settings, but that wouldn't quite explain seeing the e-mail tracks through the ldcom.fr domain/servers ... so the next possible guess is that this report was "managed" somewhere that also added your "address" (the report number <at> spamcop) in a BCC: line ...??? I know you said "the rest is a standard ..." .. but I still have that funny feeling that there's just a bit of data missing that would clear things up ... but that's probably more driven buy the fact that I don't see the "real" answer in what you've provided ... and I hate that <g>
