The originating IP address according to my whois IP search is in New
Zealand. It's unlikely that Paul's ISP is located there.

Uh-oh - someone's email has been compromised.
I didn't think this sort of thing was possible for Mac users.
it's unlikely that anyone accessed his computer; perhaps the most
common vector for this sort of thing is that some site where Paul had
registered was hacked and the hacker obtained a list of email
addresses and passwords (possibly decrypted via dictionary attack); if
his password there was the same as his Comcast email password, the
hacker could then log into Paul's Comcast webmail, harvest contact
addresses, and send out email in Paul's name via Comcast
