Damn spam

Some spammer is using @andrewsavory.com in their From: lines, prompting an influx of 2000+ spam bounces to my mailbox in the last three hours. Especially delightful since I'm on GPRS/3G during the day. So if you're trying to reach me: please expect delays of 24 hours or more.

If you use SpamAssassin, you should use http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/VBounceRuleset to help avoid that blowback

Simple solution: restrict the server through wich you send mail and register an SPF record
