Mass Mails from RP Photonics?
Occasionally, large amounts of spam (unwanted mass mails) are spread which are claiming an e-mail address in the domain rp-photonics.com as the sender. (Many “returned” mails then arrive at RP Photonics.) Of course, RP Photonics is never sending out any mass mails – particularly not concerning items which are totally unrelated to its business.
Unfortunately, there is nothing RP Photonics can do to prevent such e-mails; note that these e-mails are not delivered by the server which processes legitimate RP Photonics mails, but by other servers somewhere in the world on which RP Photonics has no control whatsoever. The same happens to many other companies. Such practices will end only once it is established that each e-mail has to be verified with a digital signature.
