Getting Continuous bounce backs from yahoo

[prashantbhushan]

hi all,
I am getting continuous bounce back mails from yahoo. Even i have not send any single mail to this yahoo id. It increased lot of my bandwidth and disk space too.
How to deal with such problems.

following is the bounce back.

Sombody is using your email address and the reply to email address for your domain in spam messages being sent out across the interenet. It happens all the time. Can you do anything about it? Not really.

Yahoo has put you on a list of people spamming them. Even though you aren't. Their systems are broken. However ...

They tell you what to do about those pesky 451 messages here.

Hi,
Currently i have added that id which is noexistent on yahoo in spamassassin.

blacklist_to ****@yahoo.co.in.

Means no mails from my server will go to ****@yahoo.co.in.

But still mails are going to that id, when i checked.

Is there any other way to do it ??

Does SpamAssassin as implemeted in DA filter outgoing emails? I don't think it does.
