Let me play dumb, because I don't understand the problem here.

It looks to me like dynamic 72.167.52.118 submitted mail to its smtp
server 64.202.189.102.  Why is that bad?



My understanding is that his server _is_ 72.167.52.118. his From
indicates pousada.com.br:
$ host -t mx pousada.com.br
pousada.com.br mail is handled by 10 mail.pousada.com.br.
$ host mail.pousada.com.br
mail.pousada.com.br has address 72.167.52.118



But 72.167.52.118 gave it to 64.202.189.102, and 64.202.189.102 is
the mail server that sent it out to the recipient.

Client software sends crazy stuff as helo.  I don't understand why
72.167.52.118's helo is being considered here.  72.167.52.118 did
not connect directly to the recipient's system, earthlink.
