However, I am a moron who doesn't go through an anonymising proxy to hide my
source IP address when posting. Here are the headers of that mail:

I don't know whether hiding the source IP like this is standard gmail
behaviour, or if you have done something special. Or perhaps you are a
Google employee on their private network?

If it's standard gmail behaviour, then I'm inclined to blacklist *@gmail.com
entirely.

Regards,

Brian.
