Well, anything's possible, but that scenario is unlikely for this guy.

Hmmm. I respectfully disagree. I've been in charge of our VMS/PMDF email
gateway for fifteen years now, and my experience is that PMDF is
remarkably forgiving of other broken mailers, but religiously
RFC-compliant about what it creates to send out.
The To: line of the email does, in fact, have his own address, which
resolves to his real Exchange 2003 mailbox. When my current crises die
down, I'm going to pay him a visit, and see exactly how he sends the
email.
Many thanks again for all the feedback. I'm still curious as to what he
did.
