Or it's likely that someone that they know who has Absolute Cycle in their address book, and it's using their address to send it.

OmniGLH's address sent me some stuff last week.

I had that happen to me some time ago. Had a lot of angry people thinking I was sending out porn. Aol contacted me to let me know what the situation was. It happens form time to time. But it really sucked!

The sender is  ABSOLTEPRFRMNCE@aol.com and the TO: field shows Kazu79@aol.com so they BCC"d me I suppose.  I did reply back, twice.  First time I was polite.  5 minutes and 12 emails later, I wasn't too nice.

Nah, my work PC doesn't get connected to the internet.  It's a standalone.   All this is on the Mac.   None of the messages contain a virus or attachment, so my .mac membership didn't stop them from coming thru.

Let it go.  Sheesh!

So you got a bunch of e-mails, press delete and be done with it.
