Is AOL known to have open relays?

I received SPAM with the following "Received:" headers today:

Received:  from ACB205A4.ipt.aol.com ([172.178.5.164] verified) by
octave.hexact.net (Stalker SMTP Server 1.8b8) with SMTP id S.0000142894
for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Fri, 24 Oct 2003 14:55:42 -0400
Received:  from tlcfan.com [22.215.193.235] by ACB205A4.ipt.aol.com
(Postfix) with ESMTP id DB585285CEEB for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sat, 25
Oct 2003 05:39:16 +0000

22.215.193.235 is from the DoD and 172.178.5.164 is allocated to AOL.

Or maybe the Received header from 22.215.193.235 was forged?

I'm trying to learn.

Clem.
