Message-ID: <EKECJMGPAACGOMIGLJJDEELADOAA.geoincidents@getinfo.org> From: geoincidents at getinfo.org (Geo.) Subject: MyDoom Email targets Yes I've been seeing a LOT of that as well, and I believe it is an attempt to mess up the blacklist spamtrap addresses such as the ones that spamcop uses. The worm appears to generate a bunch of very common named email addresses all on it's own. Geo. -----Original Message----- I've noticed I'm getting a load of messages to my catch all domains with addresses like adam@.... joe@.... sandra@.... - it's highly unlikely that this would be part of anyone's address book - is there some mechanism in the worm to try and propagate to random e-mail within a domain?
