    So, please use the Grapevine and suggest to your friends, customers,
    competitors et.al. that they stop Unauthorized Mail Relaying - or at
    least that they fix their mailer to provide useful "Received:" lines.
Problem is that:
1) an increasing number of spammers puts existing e-mail
   adresses of innocent users in their spam messages;
2) lots of recipients pay no attention to the Received:
   lines, provided they see them at all.
It's only yesterday that we were hit very hard by this.
