[PLUG] Weird e-mail

For some time (months - but infrequently), I've been getting e-mail with 
  no subject, "-" as the sender, and nothing attached or in the body. I 
generally just trash them. Today, I've received several, and trashed the 
first several. Since they've been getting more frequent, I'm including 
the header to see if any of you can shed any light on this. I've also 
included the results of whois 85.180.159.164, the first IP address in 
the header.

Thanks in advance.
