   This is useless. The email adress of the sender if always *forged*, and 
will *not* correspond to the computer from which the email originates. So no 
need to bother the person whose adress has been used.
   This is actually described @ http://www.heise.de/security/artikel/59580, 
near the middle of the page:

"""
Von: <Absender gef�lscht>
"""

English translation: <From: Sender falsified>
