Don't know if it's the case here, but check the domain.  I had a case
some time ago where the spammer had a MX records in their DNS that
resolved to 127.0.0.1 so any reply mail/bounces, etc. would never leave
the server.  Pretty sleazy.  I blacklisted the domain in sendmail's
access table.  May be something similar going on here...
