Hello,
Many of these DAMEON bounced messages may be the result of a worm.  At some 
point someone who has your email address in their address book was infected by 
the worm.  The worm may now be sending messages to other addresses in that 
person's or even another person's address book using your address as the From 
heading.  The ISP is bouncing them for whatever reason and then telling you it 
has bounced them as your address shows up as the From header.  Nothing to be 
worried about but a sure annoyance.  I get several of these a week.  I seem to 
be getting less spam in my Juno mail and also less in my Yahoo mail, but more 
in the AOL account I keep for business purposes.
Dave

Subject: [JA] Spam still comes to me...AND alleged "bounces"
From: babette bloch <bvcb@xxxxxxxx>

Unfortunately, I'm still getting plenty of spam...helped along by the
many people I know who don't use Blind CC.

However, the thing I'm relally getting a lot of are supposed messages
from "DAMEON", bounced by recipient ISP's that never heard of the
addressee.  And these are messages I never sent sent to some really weird
addressees!

Anyone else getting them?
