HEADERS?

 I've just had a flock(5) of them and they all had the same return line as yours.
I use Pegasus which does not automatically open HTML. I stupidly opened
the first one but checking with both the Symantec and Kaspersky Klez tools
say I'm clean. They all vary in size but average around 150k. 2 were
supposedly from list members but the other 3 were unknown to me.
 I guess it is harvesting Richards mail.
