Although Declude JunkMail can check the return address to make sure that it 
is a valid domain, it is not normally possible to detect an invalid username.

Note, however, that Declude JunkMail will not get tricked into thinking 
that the mail is legitimate just because the sender used a return address 
on your domain.

>We have smtp set-up for relay only our machine IP addresses.

That won't affect this -- the relay settings only prevent unauthorized 
outgoing mail.  Even the strictest relay settings will allow anyone to send 
as much mail as they want to local users.

... and the headers of the E-mail are all legitimate headers, and none are 
considered "spam-like'", so it wouldn't fail the SPAMHEADERS/BADHEADERS tests.

Note that the E-mail was sent from 210.154.131.210, which is listed in 
about a half dozen DNS-based anti-spam databases, including SPAMCOP (which 
catches a very high percentage of spam).
