How OLD are the lists spammers use?  The stock spam below was sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  cu20b was retired in 1987!

The lower Received header is faked.  columbia.edu resolves to
external-smtp-multi-vif.cc.columbia.edu, but that's a virtual
interface, not a host.  No Received would ever have "by external..."
in it.  This is a variation on the recently described Received forgery.
We have been checking already for "by columbia.edu" in Received, and
I will add this variation today.
