I received an odd spam this morning. It was sent to a nonsense address at one of my domains that still has the catchall enabled. The body of the message
Return-Path:

I predict that domain will be used for falsified return addresses for a spam run sometime soon. Or, the argument could be made that domain will not be used for false return addresses.
