Thanks for your interest. Funny thing is I changed addresses in the
middle of the two weird messages and I would have thought that if I was
spoofed then it wouldn't have shown on the new address.
But, the weird address seemed to be related to mail coming from
debian-doc, and debian-user, or more specifically two messages from
murphy.
Can you remember how to check if you are an open relay? I installed
telnet, just to test this :-), but as root when I try "telnet
localhost:25" I get:
telnet: could not resolve localhost:25/telnet: Temporary failure in name
resolution
Is that the right command, I can't find the method in my docs ... must
remember to sort this out.

Don't forget to check that your /etc/apt/sources.lst entries point to
etch and not testing, otherwise you may end up with a broken system once
etch goes stable.
