I have some email aliases (within my normal ISP email framework) which
direct to my main email address. My original intention in doing this was to
be able to ditch a particular alias if it was compromised and got onto spam
databases.
However when spammers send stuff BCC (with just one person's email address
showing in the "To" field) I don't seem to be able to determine which of the
aliases the spammer sent it to. Has anyone got any suggestions? (I'm using
Outlook 2002, SP3). I thought of giving up on my current ISP and going to
one that actually gives you several separate email addresses rather than
just aliases that are collected by your main in-box, but that's a lot of
hassle if there's a simpler way.
