Victor,

It seems very clear that the address sending to your corporate mail server
pedroliriano [68.161.119.214] is actually a Verizon dial up 

The reverse DNS of this IP can be found easily at www.samspade.org 

It sure is not legitimate.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Help interpreting mail header - spam? hijack?


Hello IMail Wizards,

Once again I'm here to mine your expertise.  This morning I had 5 emails in
my inbox from/to the webmaster of my Imail server, reporting to be tests
sent by SQL Mail.  This immediately raised my suspicions so I wanted to
request your advice.  Here's the header from the message:

****************

*********************

Everything appears legitimate - the enel.net imail server, the bncincmail
server (our corporate parent) - up until the FROM.  We're in Santo Domingo,
Domincan Republic.  The IP address of the from is in Reston, VA, according
to dnsstuff.com.

My guess is someone's trying to hijack our server, but perhaps i'm way off.
Any ideas from the Wizards is appreciated!

BTW, I must apologize for the horribly long and annoying disclaimer our
parent company places on the emails I send.  Unfortunately, I have no input
in that department.

Regards,
Víctor Amram
