[thelist] Weird spam problem

Hi

I'm getting (and I assume others are too) spam about an April fools
prank.

the weird thing is that it claims to be coming from an address that
doesn't exist on my domain, e.g. downloads(at)boldfish.co.uk or
funding(at)boldfish.co.uk

Anyone got any ideas how I can make sure that I don't get blamed for
this (or is it just some clever spoofing that has me on a spammer's list
with the mailto as the return to as well.

Ideas anyone.

Thanks

Tony
