    How about a dark-gray helicopter?

    Pardon me for showing my ignorance, but if someone spliced and diced the email header in the way you suggest, wouldn’t there be other routing information included? The only way the entire email header could have been fabricated would be if someone hacked the Salon mailserver, or someone fabricated the entire message out of whole cloth on a local Salon pc. Is that what you were suggesting?

    Sorry again if this is a really stupid question.
