If I understand what you're saying, someone has entered "Beverly Holbert" as a 
name but used a made up email address?

Not much can be done about that. If they'd used your domain too, you might have 
been able to prevent it by implementing SPF records, which say only your MX can 
generate emails for your domain.

Subject: [Exchange] Spam sent to contacts that look like they are sent from us

Hi all,
An external user is reporting to us that he receives spam emails that look that 
they are sent from our ORG users.
The reporting user is indeed a contact in some of our users but if i look at 
the spam message the email is not sent by us but by a spam email address. So it 
looks like the spammer is able to send spam and when it arrives impersonate 
some legit contacts, what can we do about it?
For example if i look at the spam headers:
From: Beverly Holbert 
<[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>
To: Mike Stevenson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>
Beverly is one of our users and Mike is a friend of her, he received the spam 
and it looks like Beverly sent it but the email address 
@succeedlife.net<http://succeedlife.net> is the one of a spammer.
