Thanks Mark,

The spam is going out to many outside addresses of the world (sorry
everybody, I need to be sentenced to community service or something for
this)

Does anybody know what the following is in my Logwatch under sendmail
area?

<snip>
Authentication warnings:
    apache set sender to lists@xxxxxxxxx using -f: 7 Times(s)
</snip>

Thanks Again! and I apologize if any of you got hit by the spam!

Rick
