"Faking a ‘non delivery’ of E-mail."

You know if you send an E-mail to a non-existing address it gets returned to you as ‘non deliverable’ … is it possible to send a fake on of these to an address who you’d prefer to no longer get E-mail from??

I could just bloke the addresses I’ve receiving mail from, but then the senders just create different addresses to send their spam from, and it’s getting rather annoying.

It’s hard to filter this, as the mail is addressed to me directly, rather than as part of a bulk mail out.

I’m hoping that I can in fact send a fake ‘no address exists’ mail back to them, in hope that the person/people will remove my address so as to no longer get these, or the automotive system sending them out will stop sending them to me.

Thanks for any info anybody is able to give.

To be honest, I probably could, but I don't know how to accuratly find out. .com searches don't reveal as much information to me as .co.uk ones do.

You are being sent the W32/Sobig.f@MM virus.

This is being sent by the sender without the senders knowledge. There is no way to track this back to the individual user who sent the virus as the senders address could be any email address that the virus found on the senders computer.

We would suggest that you set up a message rule on your PC to look for any e-mail with the following subjects:
Re: Details
Re: Approved Re:
Re: My details
Re: Thank you!
Re: That movie
Re: Wicked screensaver
Re: Your application
Thank you!
Your details

Set the message rule not to download that message and to delete it from the server.

I am so confused! Within the last couple of days I have recieved about 9 or 10 emails back to me saying Mail Delivery Failed.
One from the 'willy enlargement' company I usually get. So, even if I read these it won't do any harm, no?! I know that's not possible, but just to be sure?
There's no attachments. Also, there's a lot of code written in these emails, such as;

I think you get the point.
Is this all part of the virus going around ?
