The person's name was also at the top.  But I don't think that was the original
spammer, as why would anyone want to get several hundred automated answers?  I
suspect that the recipient probably was either created or innocent.  Perhaps the
spam was directed at an individual (the subscriber) or AOL itself.  I sure get
tired of dealing with the AOL bounces, most of them "mailbox full"
