I'm the webmaster (albeit with little experience) for my husband's website. Today my webmaster@ e-mail is being bombarded with hundreds of mailer daemons about their messages about Viagra and sex with nurses, etc. My husband is a respected photographer, and if any of these get to the wrong people it could be disastrous. I know the originating IP address of all these. Is there any way to send this idiot an e-mail with a warning, or can I report him/her to the NCC or is there anything at all I can do to stop these?? Any help would be appreciated. |

There's probably not much you can do to the person sending the spam.
What you can do however is delete the webmaster@ account and create a new one with a different name. Then when you post it on the page, put it up as a picture. On this page: http://www.whatismyip.com/whatsnew.asp you'll see that I've got a contact address for us as a gif. The downfall is, users can't click it and have an email open directly....but the upside is that this email address has been up for almost 2 years and I get very little spam. |

By the way, an alternative would be a contact form with a CAPTCHA image.
This negates the need to show any email address on the page. |

hmm... The best way can be: block this IP address. I think this helps. If you can get the E-mail address you can set up a filter against this e-mail.
I hope this helps |
