    I have just got 5 such useless messages, all of them contain the following
    in the header: 

    ---
Received: 	from unknown (HELO nyorp.abisource.com) ([137.48.71.38]) 
(envelope-sender <owner-abiword-dev-outgoing_at_abisource.com>) by 
mx-00.sil.at (qmail-ldap-1.03) with SMTP for <ingo.lists_at_vum.at>; 10 Feb 
2004 16:34:13 -0000

    So I think 137.48.71.38 is the bad guy? (I am not so good with 
mail-headers)

    Hope this helps to end this plague - Ingo.
