Check your PC for vira NOW
Somebody here at PlanetZ probably has a virus. Recently I have had several emails suposedly comming from planetz people, which included attached vira. Probably somebody here at planetZ uses outlook junk or another email program using the ourlook address list, and the virus picks up the addresses and uses them as "from" addresses.

99% of that crap doesn't even qualify as a virus - it contains an attachment that installs a hidden mail server that (ab)uses the host system to send spam.
If there's only one single idiot per 10k recipents you can make a fair living from whatever is offered this way
It's annoying, but harmless - like those mail delivery errors returning the stuff to sender (in this case me, because someone used my adress) - it's unavoidable so I just move it to the trash. The 3 seconds manual action is much faster than installing and maintaining an automated process
