« on: April 22, 2006, 10:58:18 PM »
Recently I've got a lot of mailf on my admin account from "Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON@aol.com>" - about 300 a day.

The mails are sent form a hosted webpage's mailform. The mails contain something like this:

Remove the mailform. Don't replace it until you have made sure that it is secure.
