In that case, are you sure that the message passed through your system? Maybe the virus spoofed more than just your moderators address....



Here's the full headers of the thing:

Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Received: from prime.gushi.org (localhost [IPv6:::1])
    by prime.gushi.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id j0S2GH5b080701
    for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Thu, 27 Jan 2005 22:50:56 -0500 (EST)
Received: from ROBERTA.net (pcp08579508pcs.alxndr01.va.comcast.net
    [68.83.208.54])
    by prime.gushi.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with SMTP id j0S2FV8o080233
    for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;

I only see two Received: headers here. This is not nearly enough. There's a lot of data that appears to be missing.



I think the two Received: headers could be enough considering the worm probably has it's own SMTP engine. The way to answer this for sure is to see if it is in the 'post' log.


I agree with Mark and would go even further that it is all you need to know. The pcp08579508pcs.alxndr01.va.comcast.net address, which is indicative of a Comcast end-user in Alexandria, Virginia, is plenty to know that the user that had the address at the particular time (Thu, 27 Jan 2005 21:15:35 -0500 (EST)) was infected with some type of worm.
