You need to decide what you want to do.
Many Anti-Spam programs are poorly designed and either catch a lot of legit,
or pass a lot of spam.
The best approach is using multiple tests to come to a conclusion.
Trying to find out if the sender is legit is one of those.

Hi,
We seem to be getting a lot of junk email as of yesterday and it is annoying
the users.
Trouble is, I don't think the email address that the mail says it comes from
is not really the address it is coming from.
How can I find out where a mail may have really been send from?
I know there is spam blocking software etc. that can be purchased but these
emails actually have only one line of text and this could be in a legitimate
email.
We aren't using the ISA SMTP screener. We would block from our Domino
Server.
Thanks
Regards,
