Spam

Yesterday, I got an e-mail on my on-line account (not my computer's Outlook Express). I sent back a reply. Then I got a Delivery Failure Notice, which said the receiver wouldn't accept it, and had sent it back with a message 'We don't accept spam'. There's a lot of stuff on the Failure Notice e-mail which I think gives the origin of the reply I sent.

I see now there's an attachment to the original message, but I can't remember whether I opened that or not. The e-mail says 29k. It was a seedlist, but I don't remember now if the seedlist was in the e-mail or came as an attachment, and I'm not going to open it to find out. I'm probably going to delete it and the Failure Notice in a minute.

I did tell the e-mail service, but I've not heard from them.

Can anyone tell me if I received some spam with the original e-mail, maybe in the attachment? Did this go back to the sender with my reply? Or has someone got into my e-mail provider and is attaching spam to everything I send? I haven't had any more of these Delivery Failure Notices.

It's very weird to get an e-mail saying your e-mail contained spam.
