Having very good experiences with spam filters (I have them all switched off :)
I did not even see the spam. My "manual spamfilter" successfully removed them.

Yes, I remember spam with nanog in the sender field. I receive a lot of
spam from everybody, including myself. That is why it never occured it me
it might not have been faked.

Having been hit by the lurking bit, you most likely have not spammed or
that bit would not be set in the first place.

Looks like a job for a trunk monkey.
