It not solves problem bounced mails.
Sobig.F spoofes From: address selecting randomly from
infected computer addressbook.
As result:
1) E-mail server AV scanners errousnely send message to you
notifing that your computer is infected.
2) if recipents address is no longer in use mailserver bounces
message to you notifind that mail is not deliverable.
I have get none of Sobig.F viruses [filtered out by servers] but
constantly receive messages that my mail is infected or that
user don't exists.

with e-mails from 'someone' trying to send me the Sobig Virus. Over 80 to be
exact! And I also received bounced mail, with someone using my e-mail address
trying to send the Virus to others. I don't have the Virus, so I have no idea
how they could use my e-mail address. But I easily solved the problem by
changing my password on my account, and it seems to have done the trick -
perhaps try that,
