Ed Its not that hard to find out email addresses, people join news list :-), newsgroups, fill out forms on the web, friends add them to email addresses with 1000 other people on them, some spammers have systems that just make up names and hope for the best. Have you looked in your badmail directory?, do you see a ton of messages in there? Get yourself a content management system, look on msexchange.org and look under software and you will see some recommendations for good content management systems.

It's a new server and new accounts received the message. How'd they do that? My guess is that the sender was somehow able to get a listing of available addresses on my system. Is this possible? More importantly, how can I block it?
