Ugh. Carpe Fulgur's being hijacked.

Which means it's either a very clever bot which deletes the sent mail immediately after sending it - and then doesn't fiddle with my mail at all otherwise or impede my own use of mail in any way - or something else is going on. I'll be giving Dreamhost a call on Monday.

The information says it's sent by you via Dreamhost, so whats probably happening is the hacked Dreamhost account is just faking your address and looping through itself before sending out the email; much easier than gaining control of an actual account, and with most of the credibility.
Weirdest thing is that those links lead absolutely nowhere. It's not even like it's trying to pass off malicious links as legitimate ones; it's just gibberish masquerading as gibberish.
