Congratulations - you are the victim of a "joe job" where the spammers
use your address as the "sending" and "reply to" address.

I have one such address that gets between 15,000 and 25,000 "replies"
per day and has for over 2 years that I can track. (klbypcu@???
which has never been used by the owner of that domain)

In severe cases (such as the above) only a change in your address will
stop the flood. Most however will tail off after a few days or weeks. My
own address has suffered a couple of times but seems to be fine at this
time.

For the above joe job I have a special error message crafted to send to
reply hosts after the envelope but before the body. Most severe case
I've ever run across - anyone able to top it?
