Looks to me like it came from 204.181.190.211, who identified
itself as verycool.net (which, incidently, has its names served
by freeyellowpages.com). Obviously lying as usual for a spammer.
204.181.190 is assigned to Wongs Advance Technology, and the
entire 204.18[123].x.x space is owned by Sprint.
The real host name in from reverse lookup for 204.181.190.211 is
bbs.aubbs.com, but a forward lookup of bbs.aubbs.com comes up
empty. (Misconfigured DNS).
The reverse lookup is provided by ns.accesscom.net, which also
serves names for aubbs.com. So bbs.aubbs.com is probably right.
I don't think this spammer is very good at all. And if it was
really from a bbs, I'd bet the sysop can identify the sender.
Kudos, however, to the vger ops who have a mailer that provides
all the info in the headers needed to track this stuff down.
They *are* good.
