Nothing massively suspicious in the headers of either of Murphy's recent
messages to BAK, although in the message to tue, I found this, which is
more curious than suspicious:

X-CanIt-Geo: ip=71.74.56.125; country=US; region=OH; city=Reynoldsburg;
latitude=39.9549; longitude=-82.7693; metrocode=535; areacode=614;
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=39.9549,-82.7693&z=6

This sort of geolocation feature seems to be a strange feature of tue.
Here's an X-CanIt-Geo header from an old message to tue sent by coppro:

X-CanIt-Geo: ip=209.85.222.191; country=US; region=CA; city=Mountain
View; postalcode=94043; latitude=37.4192; longitude=-122.0574;
metrocode=807; areacode=650;
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.4192,-122.0574&z=6

I note that the latitude and longitude here are very similar to the
location of Google, which is not particularly surprising, given that
coppro uses gmail. It's a bit strange that this sort of RL information
is leaking out onto the lists, though. (Presumably, you could extract it
from messages to any mailing list by looking at the headers, but only
tue bothers to do so.)
