More likely from malware running on compromised desktops and small
business Web sites.  Spammers have realized that with HTML mail people
no longer see the full From: line (and wouldn't know what it meant if
they did).  Phishing email can have

     From: "Yourbank" <suzycutie@gmail.com>

and be effective.  No need to open accounts when you can rent a botnet
of Windows boxes.
