Dear Folks,
We receive an e-mail that we want to reply back, but the sender's SMTP is=
 NOT
registered in DNS.  Let's say the sender is who@xyz.com.

Let's assume xyz.com is being resolve with its ISP DNS 150.150.150.1.  Bu=
t
there is no MX for xyz.com in this DNS.

Our e-mail is MS Exchange 5.5.  Can we trace the sender's SMTP IP address=
?
Is there better way than to peel off the original header packet to see th=
e
sender IP?

Thanks,
Audie Onibala
