its system admin automated responce, http://www.geocities.com/m_cayer_illinois_work_search_rec/bushReply.txt
when someone sends something to the white house it returns with an automated response, its not from SM the Ips dont match, but it is from your computer, basicly someone or something has sent an email with your addy to the white house, and the white house is saying that G dubya doesnt have time to respond to your message.

hope that helps.

smadmin@localhost means it could have come from anywhere. It doesn't mean it was someone from Supramania.com. There is no way to trace it unless someone steps forward and says they did it.

Sounds like a generic program's default address to me. Check with everyone on every forum you've ever posted on, or anyone who has ever seen your email address ever.

There is NOTHING in those headers to indicate that my server has a single fucking thing to do with that message.

At no point is my static IP indicated.

198.137.240.105 is not this site.
bay0-mc7-f16.bay0.hotmail.com is not this site.
esgeop03.whitehouse.gov is not this site.

At no point is ANYTHING indicated that would show this server has anything to do with it. Please don't tell me "smadmin@localhost" is where you built your conclusion. If so, get off the Internet now...

Stop talking out of your ass. I bust my ass to keep this site 100% spam free.

As a matter of fact, a whois lookup on the IP in question shows it's actually registerd to the white house:

http://ws.arin.net/whois for the Internet illiterate.

I'd suspect someone is sending email to the whitehouse and is spoofing YOUR email addy and you are getting the vaild replies from them...

Forgive me if I sound a little bent, but admins like me lose HUNDREDS of hours to stuff like this. People call AOL support and say "That supramania site is spamming me" and the next thing I know my entire server is blacklisted and I have to spend hours getting it delisted while I fight my way through 101 incompetent AOL techs...

Edit: Yes, I'm overreacting... I HATE fucking spam, and getting accused of supplying it makes me crazy.. %-O

hey hey, the problem was solved already. Joel may not be the brightest internet user and I doubt 70% of the people on here are anyways. Its cool joel just saw that and freaked out. Its been fixxed.
and nate, please keep your mouth shut.
At least central gave out a very reasonable explaination, and read out I can understand him being pissed he does work his ass off to keep this site going. I dont think joel meant any harm from this post.

No, but he's proved that he should probably be medicated for his paranoia. :)

why because he wanted to know why he was receiving return emails from the white house?
I dont call that paranoia. when a high end athority contacts me, I take it pretty serious. Do I need meds now too?
