Hmmm... Are you looking at the From: header or the envelope-from?  Everything
I send through uunet goes through three internal machines via uucp.  One on my
desktop, a local gateway, and a machine in our Washington DC office where
it's a local call to uunet.  The From: line will just have fb.com, which
doesn't tell you much.  Am I going to have to rip out the uucp From_ line
on the from the DC machine to uunet?
