Am I correct about this, and how should I stop it? Advice anyone?

Hi Ray -
You're not being hacked.
The IP Address 127.0.0.1 is your local machine that is running this script. (hence the "home" jokes). The messages above are trying to tell you that This Local Machine cannot send the message because the recipient is unknown. (Wrong email address).
That's all - no hackers are doing anything nasty to you.
Cheers! |
