    Hi all :))

    That f*cking 'big@boss.com' is spamming me not thru zsh, as
usual, but to my own address. The problem is that I only have the
address of Ecurie-Levy.com (obviously forged) to contact with its
ISP. I read here, a few days ago, that someone contacted with the ISP
of this stupid, or something like that.

    If you could tell me who to wrote to for solving this issue I
will appreciate :))

The big@boss.com mail is a worm (virus), not a spam.  There's no single
point of origin from which it can be stopped.  If you can't have it
filtered out by your ISP or some such, you're just going to have to live
with it until it runs its course and dies off.

I find it interesting that McAfee recently downgraded the severity
while Symantec upgraded it :)
