I've now received two of these, the second with the correct return address
for Peter (the first was @FLASH.NET).  They both appear to have originated
from Canada, the second was from a machine at ulaval.ca, confirmed by the
site admin there.

As Peter says, look at the headers before jumping to conclusions.  And,
more importantly, if you don't have an anti-virus (or a more secure
operating system!), GET ONE (AVG from grisoft.com is a reasonably good free
one)!
