I searched the newsgroups for one of the subjects, and found a bunch of zero day domains, one of which was still active and hosting images for this spam, turwy33.info. I then looked up the IP and found it listed in SBL fresh as of today:
http://www.spamhaus.org/sbl/sbl.lasso?query=SBL14807
This has been attributed to ROKSO spammer MailTrain, who's evidence file can be found at the following:
http://www.spamhaus.org/rokso/listing.lasso?-op=cn&spammer=MailTrain
Here's the full list of their current SBL listings...lots from China, as all good pill spammers who need dishonest hosts go (unless they can get a good rate at Exodus):
http://www.spamhaus.org/rokso/sbl_listings.lasso?spammer=MailTrain&rokso_id=ROK
One of the contacts listed in SBL shows that at least one of these guys is Scott's neighbor (figuratively).
I would be curious about whether or not this was the same spammer causing issues with Darin. Nevertheless, everyone should turn off the Nobody alias for fear that they might get harvested from not rejecting a dictionary attack during the SMTP envelope.

We generally do not have nobody alias's set on the domains we have, this was set up to capture some of the emails that were being held by the server so we could look at the headers. Once we knew we had enough of them to work with we removed the nobody alias. Basically those 10 Megs worth of emails span about 10 minutes worth of time.
Here are a couple sample headers. The IP range found within some of the (207.164.190.***) is our IP Range.
Take a look, there are two of them I have not been able to find any similarities between them. There are hundreds like this.
