$ whois -b google.com
abuse at google.com (for google.com)
Just looking at that chain of Receipt headers, it doesn't appear to be
coming from google. It appears to be from mg.friendlycity.net
[216.105.188.3]. What makes you think it's google?
hehe the webmail client which I probably wouldn't trust says:
X-OriginatingIP: 193.219.226.131
a whois on that IIP gives ;-)
inetnum: 193.219.226.0 - 193.219.227.255
netname: ITCLICK-NETWORX-NG
descr: ITClick Networx Limited
