It appears to me that the envelope sender is not forged by Klez.H,
assuming that that's the virus I'm getting all the time. So you
could check for the "Return-Path:" header, or maybe "From " (note:
no colon) if you're using a Berkeley-mailbox style system, and find
out the e-mail address of the real sender.
