Looks like ">" quoting in Outlook has other plans when converted to plain text. 
Sorry about that folks.

Could you provide more information to go along with this? What exactly are you 
trying to reach at Apple, and the originating ASN/carrier where you are seeing 
this behavior? Depending on the service, it could be a cache box for Apple TV+, 
or something CDN related.

Reformatting your email for readability.

  *
Expected: Apple infrastructure (17.x.x.x)
  *

  *
Actual destinations:
  *

  *
- 109.1.2.1 (SFR France, INFRA-SBT, [email protected])
  *
- 200.3.10.2 (INTERWEB-DAIREAUX Argentina, 200.3.10.0/23)
  *
- 67.1.2.1 (CenturyLink)
  *
- 184.0.0.13 (CenturyLink)
  *
- 136.3.5.1 (AWS)
  *

  *
Pattern: TLS 1.3, 02:00-03:30 local, multiple clients Geographic spread makes 
no sense (EU + small Argentine ISP from US).
  *

  *
Possible C2/exfil. Worth checking your flows for 109.1.0.0/17 and 200.3.10.0/23 
from non-EU/LACNIC sources.

Hey NANOG,

Seeing some odd routing from an Atlanta device that seems to lack logic to say 
the least. Thought I'd shed some light on it....

Expected: Apple infrastructure (17.x.x.x) Actual destinations: - 109.1.2.1 (SFR 
France, INFRA-SBT, [email protected]) - 200.3.10.2 (INTERWEB-DAIREAUX 
Argentina, 200.3.10.0/23) - 67.1.2.1 (CenturyLink) - 184.0.0.13 (CenturyLink) - 
136.3.5.1 (AWS) Pattern: TLS 1.3, 02:00-03:30 local, multiple clients 
Geographic spread makes no sense (EU + small Argentine ISP from US). Possible 
C2/exfil. Worth checking your flows for 109.1.0.0/17 and 200.3.10.0/23 from 
non-EU/LACNIC sources. - Joseph II
