   it was definitely a spoof which i already knew from the sending IP being in   
   the phillipines and not associated with that domain ;)

   no technology needed, really... you just set the info in the header and fire   
   it off... it has always been this way since email was first developed... this   
   was because at that time people using the system were honest and   
   trustworthy... one didn't worry or even think about someone spoofing this   
   information...

   i used this route and got the confirmation i thought i'd get... it is all good   
   either way ;)

   If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until   
   you hire an amateur.
