I received an obvious fishing mail today from ad...@p27.eu (my own
domain).  I appear not to be running an open relay (say the sorts of
websites that offer to check these things), and yet this happened:

    Dec 15 11:58:03 nantes-1 postfix/smtpd[31118]: warning: hostname

    Dec 15 11:58:03 nantes-1 postfix/qmgr[17671]: 8AFC8FF74D: removed

The received mail had headers that looked like this:

    Return-Path: <ad...@p27.eu>
    X-Original-To: j...@p27.eu

Am I reading this wrong?  Why was that able to happen?  I would have
expected a reject because something that is not my domain claimed to be
sending mail from my domain without authentication.
