It gets worse yet. God help you if you're in the addressbook of someone who
gets a "virus." When the thing propagates and sends out email in your name,
you get all of the bounces from mail that you didn't initiate. I'm getting
10 or 12 MAILER-DAEMON errors per day right now, and rising. Worse yet, you
have no idea whose address book in the problem.
