Hi Nigel,

My mail server, when it receives an email, records the IP address of
the system that it got the email from. Most SMTP servers do this. In
this case, the IP address was 196.35.116.196, as you can see in the
Received: line, below, which turns out to be mfpsjb01.motorite.co.za
(which confirms what my email server says).

The Message-Id: line mentions "host25.the-web-host.com", which is the
same as my email server, which indicates that the original message did
not have a Message-Id: line in it.

Since the worm gets the email addresses from the infected system to
fill in the From: and To: addresses, whatever system sent the message
apparently has emails to or from both hilda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and
wizard@xxxxxxxxx

That "hi" email on the list is from the same IP address, therefore the
same person, whoever it is, is probably a member of this list.
