His genuine mails seem to have Message-IDs stamped by Exim rather than by 
Emacs, actually.

Okay, I perhaps chose the wrong wordings: the fact that it came to the 
listserver _straight_ from some Ukrainian server made it suspicious:

Normally, the message should come from some machine related to the sender: like 
portable.galex-713.eu in your case or fencepost.gnu.org in RMSʼs.

As for travelling, I am not sure, whether fencepost.gnu.org reveals in headers 
where mail were submitted from, or whether it accepts mail by SMTP at all, but 
RMS seems to submit his mail by SSH rather than by SMTP in any case:
