Thing is, in my case it wasn't due to that many people, most were mainly
from one guy at rr.com
Common header:
Received: from LANCE (cs6711150-130.satx.rr.com [67.11.150.130])
And he was the source of 260 in one day, total so far = 609!
Really not sure why that happened - shouldn't the worm be sending to many
and not blast just one address. Is it blasting 500 copies to each person on
all the lists- but how's that going to make it spread faster.
