Just got a copy of Sircam with the following headers:

Note that it's disguising itself as a customer of the Mexican
Prodigy service when in fact the mail didn't touch any of Prodigy's
servers; it came from emory.edu. (I suspect that the mail actually
originated from "Student.Publications at emory.edu", though I haven't
confirmed this yet. This means that, as with Hybris, most recipients
won't be able to determine how to send abuse reports. Nasty.
