Bizarre

I just tried to send an e-mail via Yahoo and received the following failure notice:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

:
68.165.142.179 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.1.1 User unknown
Giving up on 68.165.142.179.

Um, this is some kind of joke or spam thing, right?

The 68.165.142.179 IP belongs to Covad Communications out of California. A telecom company. The 550 5.1.1 appears to be an error identifier.

Check the recipient address again.

I got one of those, too. I think it's a kind of scam. Don't click on anything in it.
