[wplug] Help tracking down a spam problem.

I'm trying to help a client resolve a spam problem.  He's being
accused of spamming, and we can't determine whether it's really
his problem, or if the mail is being forged.

The only thing that links the mail to him is a header that says:
X-AOL-IP: <his mailserver IP>

I've been searching google and AOL's site, and can't seem to
find any information on this header.  Does anyone know if this
is a header legitimately added by AOL, or if it's a phony, forged
header?
