We got blasted w/ a TON of spam with spoofed Hotmail addresses...  I
think they are essentially under a DOS attack of every email system
sending them "undeliverable", and "infected" reply emails.

This would seem to be a "Joe Job"   Interesting that we started getting
our SPAM attack just as I was reading the excellent description of what
a "Joe Job" is by RZeman@melwood.org

Reciently (a few weeks ago I think) Comcast and Yahoo were reporting
problems emailing Hotmail due to this type  activity.

I have been having problems for the last few days sending mail to any
hotmail addresses.
 
I just called my ISP (XO) and they said they have gotten this
complaint
before but it is not their problem. There is a problem  between
Groupwise and Lotus notes and Hotmail and MSN.
 
It seems kind of strange to me and before i try contacting MSN and
Hotmail I wanted to see if anybody else has experienced this.
 
Thanks in advance.
