Track down email source...

OK, I'm getting the remanents of one of our clients having the Klez virus, but I can't figure out who it is.

Is there a way to figure out where an email came from?

The return address is mine, but half of these people are not in any address book here (my Mac is the only one that houses one - a PC does have email set up but no address book and no messages in it at all - no sent, saved, or drafts).

From the headers I can't seem to deduce who might be the culprit.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
Shawn

Re: Track down email source...

Spamcop does a good job of parsing through spam and virus email headers, and sending notices to the appropriate abuse email addresses:

Check my post here for more info:

The bottom-most received: line in the headers is the originator of the message.
