That's a lot of garbage.  It's either the world's worst attempt at forging
Received: headers, or perhaps qmail-scanner is broken in this instance?  Any
other rewriting going on?

I didn't get that far in the headers; there appeared to be a lot more garbage,
so I'm not sure I agree with you.

You aren't rejecting anything with tcpserver; you're accepting all
connections.  How it got relayed is another matter.

To trace this, you need to find the qmail qid in this message, then go through
your qmail-send logs to find out where this message originated and how.  Based
on the timestamp you find there for "new msg ...", look in your qmail-smtpd
logs.  That will tell you exactly where the message originated.

Perhaps you have a CGI script which sends mail, and contains a security hole?
Or something else is letting people into your 10. address space?
