Unless you had his IP as allowed to relay, or his domain or sub-domain
if you can determine it, you would have to have been running an open
SMTP relay. If he gets a new IP every time he logs on to his ISP, that's
a problem. I think there have been some posts in the past about using
dynamic IP's for this.
