Huh?  The first received header (read from the bottom up):

Received: from burkeauto.com (pro75-3-82-234-174-1.fbx.proxad.net [82.234.174.1])
             by adlsrv4.airbornedatalink.com (Postfix) with SMTP id 402AB34001
             for <ad...@adlmail.com>; Wed, 26 Jul 2006 10:41:47 -0500 (CDT)

I suppose you might say that the HELO (burkeauto.com) is faked.

Re: spam

Posted by jdow <jd...@earthlink.net>.
Email headers are very easily forged. What's fun is when you start
receiving bounces from other sites that are mal-configured complaining
about the spam from your site based on the From and Reply-to headers
that have been forged. That's called a joe-job. And about all you can
do is delete the complaints and whine about it. Oh, you can make a vow
that you will never EVER find a spammer innocent of ANYTHING if you
find one on trial and you are in the jury. (Just don't tell the lawyers
or judges about that vow.) Of course, if paperwork does not bother you
and possible prison time is no worry then killing any spammer you meet
would meet with vast approval in most of the civilized world.

Does that mean they just faked the headers?
