http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/w32yahae.html shows that it sends 
the E-mail on its own, so it can (and does) create whatever headers it likes.

66.30.200.159 is an AT&T Broadband IP address, so it likely was sent from 
someone with the virus.  Note that the URL above specifies that the virus 
may send itself as a bounce message lookalike.  This is almost certainly 
not intentional (aside from the intent of the writer of the virus).
