Actually, my investigation shows it's a malformed server error ... so
someone out there is subscribed with a mail server that sends out false
error messages ... which CAN indicate an address harvester confirming sender
addresses by sending that junk back to see if it's deliverable ...


Not saying it IS an address harvester, but it's possible... there's a few of
those on this list for sure ... there normally are a couple on ALL
high-traffic lists ...
