Post email server

Is virgins email server having a bit of a funny moment.

I have my ntlworld address set to forward to my domain email account.

I have ASSP (antispam smtp proxy) on my domain mailserver not sure if it mates a difference.

Anyway I've literally had hundreds of copies the same email from dabs and now from amazon

I've not had any such problems with mails forwarded in from my gmail account

It seems like the email has got stuck in the outgoing mail queue or something and it keeps resending. I know my end can use delaying to verify the email came from a legitmate server (most spam programs apparently don't bother retrying)

http://www.asspsmtp.org/wiki/Delaying

However this shouldn't cause the problem i'm now getting with these 2 emails i think It got delayed once and might be stuck in the queue for resending on the VM server dispite it actually getting though ok on a retry

The emails all have the same time and date. btw....

Any ideas how to stop it?
