I just got a response to an month old lart that was simply:
Please report this spam to MAPS RBL.
This was from someone on the network of origin. Is he seriously
suggesting that I should propose a RBL of his own network??
the relevant headers for the original spam were:

and this one which was discarded as fake

the response came from @interq.or.jp.
I'm suspecting either an incomplete understanding of RBL, or
a shaky grasp on english ... or I'm really out of it today and
missing something entirely.
