Actually Scott - DECLUDE is much smarter than you give it credit for.
In ALL of my many daily KLEZ encounters I have found the following to be
true:
a) the Message Header "FROM:" is false
b) the Envelope "FROM:" always uses an email addresses that matches the host
in the first RECEIVED line.
Here is a sample from a few minutes ago:
Header From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Envelope From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Their Server: hbci.com [206.230.105.5] for hbci.com
Message ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I have YET to receive ONE complaint about one of the KLEZ notifications. So
I'm pretty confident that the Envelope From may contain the TRUE email
address of the infected user.

>Hi, how do I tell where the Klez.h is really coming from? Thanks.
The only way to know for sure is to check the first Received: header to see
the IP address that it was sent from. To find the user it came from, you
would need to find someone responsible for the IP address it came from, and
hope that they can track down the user.
