Unfortunately, you're sorta right. Considering that my surname is Meyer,
and the ADSL connection is for the whole family, I decided to call it
"meyers at westnet dot com dot au". The Sender id said that he was "Johnnie
Meyers" using the same id, which suggests to me that maybe there is a
duplicate id, with Johnnie baby spamming all and sundry with this sort of
stuff and I <quote> "get larger nuts and penis, more pleasure, more
satisfaction"  </quote>. The next thing is, he'll be sending off Nigerian
419's and the Feds'll haul me off in the Black Maria for Internet fraud, or
my id - if I ever use it for external mail - will be on the world+dog's
black hole list.

I have heard of the spammers stealing people's id's and them spamming them
with their own id in the Sender/Reply to fields, before as well.

Thanks
