Angry Fire me@localhost.com Spam

I keep getting an email with no subject, no message, and from me@localhost.com. I checked the properties and this is what it said:

the IP address it came from (146.20.87.33) is owned by:

OrgName: Omni Hosting
OrgID: OMNIHO-1
Address: 607 Farms Drive
City: Burlington
StateProv: MA
PostalCode: 01803
Country: US

I was able to Telnet to port 25 on that address an it looks like an IMail server. Obviously a spammer who's spoofing whatever email address they want. You can try to contact the provider, but chances are they will do nothing at all.

that's really upsetting. I kept my email from spammers for so long and my brother had to screw it up.
