Hi folks,

Over the last few days every time I send/recieve I get a large number of bounced emails with typical spam subjects.

I've looked on the server for unusual processes or files in the temp locations but nothing *looks* out of place.

Can anyone recommend steps I can take to check the mail server isn't being exploited by some idiot somewhere in the world?

Your box/domain is probably used as part of a faked mailheader... :(
