Re: Outbound mail server Spoofed. I know that it would do nothing. It was the fact the HostGator's answer was to fix the problem-- turn on domain keys (which is used for incoming mail) and SPF. None which would really correct the problem.
After rebuilding the server and changing the IP that was assigned to it, the SPAM did stop, but the fact is, i pay them the manage the server and all, and nothing was done but passing the buck.
Then I asked- would anyone consider changing hosts after they refused to help and just kept passing the buck. I've debated about putting it back on my own T1 in house again. |

Best idea in this thread so far. Host your own email and use a 3rd party to filter spam.
Still, nothing you can do to prevent spammers from using a return address on your domain other than SPF.
