But you have... so either someone has scraped crawled webpages and de 
"nospam" ed the address.... or more likely someones subscribed to a load 
of mailing lists to harvest addresses that come through....

I see that you have the header :-

In that email... so I can't quite work out why this is a problem for

filtered and flagged as coming from a blacklisted server.

Such is life.
