You were stupid enough to use a program like Kaboom, which is
for wannabes.  You were trying to spoof kaiwan.com, but since
you don't know how SMTP works, you got caught with your pants
down.  The SMTP server you used (grove.ufl.edu) is anonymous in
that in will allow mail from any host....the drawback is that
it tags the mail with the ip of the host that it received the
mail from(your machine, host95.flex.net). The list servers you
used matched the list that you checked off in Kaboom...they were
even in the same order.  You were even stupid enough to check
off the "Send your condolences box," this immediately tips off
the fact that you were using Kaboom.

There is no use in denying it, you have been caught.

I'll take you up on your offer...send me a mail spoofing my IP
address.

John
