This is possible on a system which has multiple interfaces.  I saw one
of these in a legitimate mail I received yesterday:

Received: from 10.32.0.3 (actually host 212.219.57.40) by xxxx.xxxx.ac.uk 
          with SMTP-SLOPPY with ESMTP; Thu, 18 Sep 2003 14:13:21 +0100

Yep.

The original would have looked like this:

X-OriginalArrivalTime: 18 Sep 2003 05:40:43.0603 (UTC) FILETIME=[66E88230:01C37DA7]

and has been wrapped.

(FILETIME is a 64-bit counter starting from the Windows NT "epoch",
which is midnight UTC 1 Jan 1601.  The count is in 100ns intervals.
One of its uses in Windows is for storing creation/modification times
in the NTFS filesystem.)
