Of course, this ignores the fact that '172.30.132.19' is
in RFC-1918 space. 
<wry grin>

Now _how_ 'mrout3.yahoo.com' got that message *is* open
for speculation.
Even more interesting is how it got DNS name resolution on
that address.

Best available evidence indicates that _that_ header line is
a total 
fabrication.

As I recall, the  header added by the destination system
showed receipt
from a yahoo machine (and a valid IP address, belonging to
yahoo).

It's possible that yahoo's auto-parsing got misled by the
bogus header
shown above.
