Even that will not necessarily assure you have the originator as
IP address spoofing could have also been employed simultaneously...
So again your being a tad bit too simplistic.. However you also
could be quite right as well.

I did know, and as I also pointed this out in two previous posts on
this
thread in response.. However you did make yet another mistake in being
a tad bit too simplistic as to what MAY have happened regarding Ken's
Email/spam/virus if indeed his Email address was spoofed without his
knowledge, given he has a number of Email addresses that also could
have been the originating culprit... I assumed you took that fact into
account. It may be I was mistaken in making that assumption... I will
not do so again... >;)
In any event, AGAIN, it is Ken's email address that is possibly
spreading
a Virus. And KEN is responsible for his Email addresses.. Hence, he
is responsible for any damage his Email address may have caused and
as one that holds himself in self high regard, such a laps in
professional
and personal responsibility is inconsistent with good and/or reasonable
leadership...
