Subject: Stupid mail forgeries - was: Delivery failure notification (fwd)
To: techdiver@terra.net

Interesting bounce.  A not too well forged message which apparrently
originated from a compuserve dial-in user, relayed through interserv,
apparrently trying to unsubscribe me from cavers.  Gosh, I feel honored. 
I'm not even on cavers.  I'll bet I *really* hit the nail right on the
head in that last post. 

I was successfully unsubscribed from techdiver.

I wonder if compuserve keeps logs that are good enough to match up the 
interserv timestamp with the compuserve IP address and figure out which 
user is forging this e-mail? Who was that SPRY user? :-)
