It appears that something has got hold of various addresses that I’ve previously emailed and is sending spam to these addresses.

1. Sincere apologies for anything I inadvertently did to cause this. I hope you know I wouldn’t deliberately spam anyone.
2. It’s possible that another correspondent’s PC which received the ‘I’m offski email’ I sent before I departed has had all the CC addresses harvested. A couple of days ago I received ‘your virussed email has been bounced’ messages in response to things I didn’t send. I also received notification that a correspondant had tried to send me some infected pictures – and I know this correspondent wouldn’t knowingly do so
3. Apologies again for any hassle you’ve received

To try to assess what’s happened and look for a cure, please comment below if you’ve recieved any spam which purports to be from me.
