Steven and all, I have also been receiving the same sort of spam. Seems that perhaps again APNIC has some Bind problems that it has had in the not so distant past that it cannot seem to fix properly or refuses to do so.. Steven W. Teppler wrote:

I've been receiving some interesting emails stating that they are "failed" deliveries from, ahem, postmaster@TimeCertain.com. Now, TimeCertain is the company for whom I work, and I happen to know for a fact that there is no "postmaster" address active in our domain. I just received one email from "Mail Administrator" using the same spoofed return address.

All the emails have a zipped file attachment.

I did a "whois" for the senders domain address and found this:

OrgName: Asia Pacific Network Information Centre OrgID: APNIC Address: PO Box 2131 City: Milton StateProv: QLD PostalCode: 4064 Country: AU

Interesting. I never knew our postmaster operated through a site in Milton Australia.

Has anyone had similar occurrences happen? We routinely delete the messages as well as attachments which remain unopened. Has there been any report on "attachment" content or payload?
