The sending network is bogus and blocklisted, but the Reply-to network is particularly interesting:
Code:
$ dig mx mail2webmaster.com         

; <<>> DiG 9.2.3rc4 <<>> mx mail2webmaster.com
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 22711
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 0

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;mail2webmaster.com.            IN      MX

;; ANSWER SECTION:
mail2webmaster.com.     86400   IN      MX      10 publicms2.mail2world.com.
mail2webmaster.com.     86400   IN      MX      5 publicms1.mail2world.com.

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
mail2webmaster.com.     172724  IN      NS      ns02.mail2world.com.

These four hosts are on four entirely different networks:

$ host publicms2.mail2world.com
publicms2.mail2world.com has address 65.74.168.215
$ host publicms1.mail2world.com
publicms1.mail2world.com has address 216.163.188.54
$ host ns02.mail2world.com
ns02.mail2world.com has address 74.202.142.53
$ host ns01.mail2world.com
ns01.mail2world.com has address 209.67.128.53


mail2webmaster.com (209.67.128.20)

mail2world, Inc SAVV-S265634-1 (NET-209-67-128-0-1)
                                  209.67.128.0 - 209.67.129.255


Reported to SAVVIS, though I don't expect much to come of that.

mail2world.com is another freemail provider. Numerous 419 spammers use mail2world addresses as an alternative to both GMail and Hotmail, both of whom have become far more efficient at shutting down accounts used in 419 scams.

mail2world.com is not a malicious domain.
