[SLL] [Fwd: Delivery Status Notification (Failure)] - joe jobs

I'm getting deluged with thousands of these joe jobs due to some spammer using my
e-mail address in his "reply to:" header. Most come from qmail and Exchange servers.

What is the proper way to fix this problem? I could treat each of these joe jobs as
spam and automate a reply to them using procmail. It started happening a few days ago
just getting a few hundred of these joe jobs a day but now the problem is growing to a
few thousand just today alone.

Maybe I should make an effort to go after the spammer who caused the joe jobs in the
first place.

Comments?
