About 60 emails (as far as I can see) have been sent out from my email address came back as failed - firstly only with a Hello and then targeted with photo attachments of puppies etc - not sure if it also went out to the Ubuntu lists. Most of the messages which I saw, came back as delivery failed - I wonder how many went out successfully. I have the impression that some might have gone out successfully. How can I take back my email address? Or get it cleaned up? Should I send out a warning to everyone who had been targeted in the first case? Any advice?
