Spam reported from us not from us? (bogus Recieved: lines?)
I got _53_ spamcop complaints forwarded to me this morning by DV2-abuse for one of my servers.Some server info:
Plesk 2.x with Qmail mta, uses a mail relay to spool all outgoing email at
mail-relay.genericdns.com so all mail should show this, but these spam don't plus I've scoured the maillogs for ANYTHING from these headers, ips, from: lines, everything, and NONE of them are found in the logs. At this point I can't find ANYTHING to show this email originated with us but the headers in the email shows it as coming from us.
And (granted I don't spend hours reading mail headers) is it normal for a "Recieved" line to be found BELOW the From: To: lines? Just looked odd, here's a header from one of the complaints.
Also, this shows recieved from 127.0.0.1 AND 209.51.150.9 (our server) in the header.
Any help at all deciphering what's going on would be helpful.
