this is actually a somewhat well known situation, it appears
that there are two warring groups of spammers joe-jobbing
each other (and if you look at the from addresses, you may
see them trying to get various ISP and anti-spammer mail
boxes pounded by angry responses.)
i've got a whole collection of them. been getting them
for months.
it's also somewhat offtopic for this list. i suggest that
followups be off list, unless they can be typed into
IOS.
