seeking advice

[thorne1j]

my wife has received a couple of mails from people with ntlworld.com addresses. The e mails are sent to, firstly, All_mail_users@ntlworld.com and secondly to some_mail_users at ntlworld.com. Both are titles "hey dude" and both contain 49.9KB attachments.

Why is it so easy for people to send to these universal addresses and what can we do about it.

All advice appreciated. Thanks v much.

Jon.
