I think you need to do a virus, trojan, and spyware scan - you may have something like Klez which is mailing out to everyone in your adress book without your knowledge.

Hi I e-mailed my problem to JUNO and this is their responce
Hello, Thank you for contacting the Juno Help Center. We appreciate your bringing this matter to our attention. We understand your frustration at receiving bounces for e-mail that appears to have been sent from your own account. Please understand that spammers often forge the recipient's e-mail address in the "From" and "To" fields of the message headers in order to disguise the actual origin while creating confusion for spam recipients. If you would like to learn how to report spam to the correct domain, please see "How to Complain to the Spammer's Provider" at http://spam.abuse.net/userhelp/howtocomplain.shtml. Finally, we don't recommend replying to spammers (or using any "remove" option offered in a spam e-mail) since this confirms your e-mail address and often results in more spam in your Inbox. Thanks for helping us combat e-mail abuse!

Ocean -
That email is an auto-response from Juno (you probably sent to 'abuse@juno.com' or similar?). Since most of the msgs they get have to do with spam, that is what it is regarding. Anyway, let us see the full headers of the email. Maybe then we can see if it is a response to something you are actually trying to send that may not be getting the right address. Even though I doubt this is the case, it is possible. What is most probable is what glc has said. Go to here: http://www.moosoft.com/thecleaner/download.php Download the 30-day trial, install and run 'the cleaner', and see if you have the most common problem (more common than viruses even), some type of trojan. Also, let us know what OS you are using and what email client. I can assume you're using juno, but do you use something like Outlook Express to check your account? Also, do you use an address book with whatever client you use? ~K |

It actually looks like someone may be using your account to send spam or you may have some kind of Trojan on your computer trying to send it. Did you ever reply to a spam with subject "Make sense to refinance now? rmazAtqqmtBWBie"? It looks like it was originally from you, not to you. But I can't tell for sure. I would need to see the headers from the original mail. Look in your outgoing folder to see if there's anything unusual. Otherwise, give us the headers from another email. What I'm looking for is an email address in the "Return-Path".

I delete spam as some as i can and never reply to any of it.This is part of juno's responce to my question "We understand your frustration at receiving bounces for e-mail that appears to have been sent from your own account. Please understand that spammers often forge the recipient's e-mail address in the "From" and "To" fields of the message headers in order to disguise the actual origin while creating confusion for spam recipients."

I'll have to agree with Cat. If you have run an antivirus/trojan and you haven't had any problems since, I wouldn't worry about it until you do again. Did you try The Cleaner? Did it find anything? Good Luck!

If you don't get any more messages, then I wouldn't worry about it. Unless, of course, your norton virus definitions are out of date. Make sure you have the latest definitions, run the anti-virus scan, and if nothing comes up, don't worry about it until you get another message. Also, see
http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.p...threadid=52096 for another current thread regarding email viruses. ~K |

You can also go to trendmicro and do an online scan. Do you have a firewall? Are you on dialup or on a LAN? If you have dsl or a cable modem it is important to have a firewall. You are always connected with that type of modem and getting hacked is becoming a frequent problem on the net.
