Of course cable.earthlink.net does not exist, you must be joking ;-) and no
it is not spoofed.
I mentioned 'cable' so that you could see it is not sent through the server
but directly, meaning port 25 to the Internet seems still wide open for that
host.
Here's the complete address: user-0c2i63l.cable.earthlink.net [24.41.24.117]
Spamassassin got that one fine with URIBL_JP_SURBL and GAPPY_SUBJECT! But I
rather didn't get it at all.. I know I want too much (or too little in this
case).
