Re: [Spam] when someone fakes your email address to spam

I agree with the others. Spammers will rotate the fake from address frequenlty, as it can be used as a filtering field. The time limit is usually not more than several days. Filter the return failure notifications in the interim, and you should be fine within a few days to a week at most.
