I'm starting to get spam from my own domain. That is, someone is spoofing
the From to have the same domain as the To. In some messages, the From and
To are identical; I'm receiving spam from myself.

Is there any way in Outlook 2003 to identify these spoofed From addresses
and automatically dump them into the Junk directory?

By the way, I occasionally send messages to myself--particularly when I'm
traveling. So I can't merely assume that messages that I send to myself are
spam.

Thanks.

No. There's no effective way to tell the difference - but maybe you should
examine your problem more closely. You're showing the symptoms of a virus
infection - specifically KLEZ (see
http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_99367.htm ) or something similar. I'd
recommend a full virus scan with updated Norton or McAfee tools.

Later, if necessary, your domain admin (I'm assuming we're talking intranet
not internet here) can trace back the messages based on assigned TCP/IP
addressess at specific message times if it comes to that.
