if you are on a shared server, their may be other restrictions that you will have to look into but sending 1,000 emails is not spam - we send 100 times that

your recipients will judge if email is spam

[Marco van Herwaarden]

only if a sent email from vb to all users a get the message back in my mailbox from the spammer

My guess is that it only means that one of the email address of your members you are sending this mail to, has been hijacked by a spammer and you receive an automted spam response in your email.
