The problem with this email is that the return address has been forged, it 
is not where the email really came from.  So far I've had 8 of these from 
as far afield as the UK, Argentina and Australia.  All have been from 
different email addresses.

Putting hahaha@xxxxxxxxxx will not work since the server looks to see 
where the email is really from.

Having said that, if anyone comes up with a solution I'd be interested to 
hear it.
