I've been getting these test emails fairly randomly for years, and a while back I thought I'd linked it to google spidering the site (I happened to notice googlebot had visited one of the perl files at roughly the same time as I got a test email), so I figured googlebot was accidently triggering the emails thought no more about it.
However, I've just received a "This is a test email from Actinic Catalog" email followed almost imediately by a failure notice telling me that my email "This is a test email from Actinic Catalog" could not be delivered to 12 different recipients (in the same failure email). Very suspiciously all of the emails start with the letters FE (ie. it looks like an email was sent to a subset of a large number of emails sorted in alphabetical order).
So it looks like something has been hacked somewhere....?
What settings do I need to change to fix that? Currently it's set to "localhost" in the email settings.
