But it doesn't -- just do a look-up with 68.44.33.180 and you get
"pcp179291pcs.pnsakn01.nj.comcast.net". In the header of a message
recently posted by Katarina, you find:
"Received: from [68.44.33.180] by web13203.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Fri,
29 Nov 2002 16:07:08 PST"
The mail server is Yahoo's ("web13203.mail.yahoo.com" = 216.136.174.188)
and the originating computer is the one identified by the IP number
68.44.33.180 -- obviously they are not the same.
I'd say that Katarina owes us an explanation.
