It originated at adsl-66-120-254-18.dsl.lsan03.pacbell.net [66.120.254.18]. That host said 'helo Jillian.org' when it connected but that means nothing. In fact that hostname does not exist.

How can it put your domain in the From: line?  By just doing
it.  Random From: lines are pretty standard in virus mail.

(The other two Received headers look pretty strange to me with
all those nonexistent hostnames-- but maybe they are normal.
I cannot explain those.)

So what about Mimedefang?

Hi all,

Look at the following header information. THe user got this mail but it
was never sent by one internal user (harv) to SAMMY. They also said that
it contained virus. Now I think that this mail was generated from
jillian.org.
Now what all can I diagnose from this. How the mail is generated from
outside domain using internal user name etc. ??
Any help or diagnosis is highly appreciated.

Thanks

Vivek
