Re: [Full-disclosure] Strange Emails -- What are they?



Is this just another instance of spammers fishing for legit addresses?
If so, then why the hell are they sending email from invalid addresses?
I can dig into this a lot further if I need to, but I wanted to see if
anyone else had any ideas about it first.  Thanks in advance!!!

Yes (just spam -- address harvesting). There was some discussion about this exact issue yesterday over on UNISOG :
