>Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This means that the spammer used "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as their
E-mail address in the SMTP envelope (the E-mail address that bounce
messages would go to -- which would explain all those AOL connections you
are getting).

This is an internal AOL delivery.

And another AOL mail server passing on the E-mail.

And here you go. The spam was being sent from www.florida.com, which is
your web server. Apparently, it is running an open relay. Unfortunately,
Microsoft installs SMTP by default (even if you don't want it) a lot, and
as an open relay. One company I know of spent a lot of time closing the
open relay of their mail server, but had about 10-15 other open relays on
web and related servers that they didn't even realize had mail servers on them.

... and your web server didn't even log who sent the E-mail!
