Hi Jesse. Thanks for the reply. It's nice to know it's not the list that's been compromised. I rapidly ran chkrootkit on the machine in the usual paranoid way, but it shows all clear. I'm more concerned that perhaps one of tiscali.fr mailservers has been hit. Particularly with the ammount of spam and scams I'm getting with loads of CC's directed to tiscali.fr clients. I had hardly any unsolicited mail when I was in England on a freeserve/ wanadoo account. Keep up with the good work, FC1 is still going well. Nigel.
