Both Received headers disagree with you: > Received: by 10.220.45.205 with SMTP id g13cs9092vcf; > Wed, 10 Feb 2010 03:26:10 -0800 (PST) [...] > Received: from mr.google.com ([10.141.106.5]) > by 10.141.106.5 with SMTP id i5mr58323rvm.152.1265801170088 > (num_hops = 1); Wed, 10 Feb 2010 03:26:10 -0800 (PST) The receiving MTA that added the topmost header just didn't bother logging the sending MTA as well. As for how it got there: In-Reply-To and References headers suggest that the mail was sent from one GMail account to another. Which would also explain why there are only private IP addresses involved. > In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> > References: <[email protected]> > <[email protected]> > <[email protected]> > <[email protected]> Regards Ansgar Wiechers -- "Abstractions save us time working, but they don't save us time learning." --Joel Spolsky
