Well I think I figured out what's going on. I have a user that is using
some sort of PHP/mySQL combo to do mass mails. I assuming because it's
browser based it gets tagged with httpd as the mailer id. See example of
a header below:

>From httpd  Wed Feb 20 16:28:11 2002
Return-Path: <httpd>
Received: (from httpd@localhost)
by www.myserver.com (8.10.2/8.10.2) id g1KNSA812133;
Wed, 20 Feb 2002 16:28:10 -0700
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2002 16:28:10 -0700
Message-Id: <200202202328.g1KNSA812133@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Now my question is....how do I stop this guy or anyone else from doing
this?
