Todd is pretty correct.  My suggestion is to "view" the header contents of 
the message.  The one I received today (for one of our domains) was actually 
sent from Korea - and not from spamcop (mail.julianhaight.com) so I forwarded 
a complete copy to them so they are aware what is going on...  Do a "whois" 
against the received from IP address - do _not_ believe the received host 
name, they can say anything they want to at the helo prompt....
