John,

I'm presuming that you did include the Received: headers?  I know you've
been going through an ordeal with a customer of theirs sending spoofed spam,
but I'm not sure what your sarcastic response to the e-mail was justified
by.  What he/she was asking for is a fairly legit question to track stuff
down, at least typically.  Of course if the source is actually from or 
through a USWest mail server than they could check their logs before pushing 
you off for more info and hopefully  it would be plainly obvious to them at
that point. :-)
