The correct address, for mail.sheltoncomputers.com is
173.50.101.12. I am actually doing this to make the headers
correct, due to the bug of Centos.
This looks as if it's added by a hop through a content_filter.
The "mail.sheltoncomputers.com" is the HELO name supplied by
the upstream client, the connection comes from 127.0.0.1 which
the system resolves to the hostname "mail".
Mangling the header to make it appear as if it came from
another IP address is the wrong choice -- it really did come
from 127.0.0.1.
Better choices:
- do nothing. The header correctly records where the mail has
been, even if it's not pretty.
- change the upstream client to HELO with something different
than mail.sheltoncomputers.com.
- fix your hosts file so that 127.0.0.1 doesn't resolve to "mail".
- REPLACE it with something generic like "X-Filtered: by
mail.sheltoncomputers.com"
- use header_checks IGNORE action to remove the offending header.
