Can you forward the email as an attachment?
This way, the headers will be available for analysis.

I am not sure where to post this but here it goes:
I am getting dozens of the following email that I know are not coming from
any of my firewalls or routers.  Has anyone ever seen this?  Any one have
any information on who UXN is and how I can contact them?
Thanks,  Sean
Your router has detected and protected you against an attempt to gain access
to your network. This may have been an attempted hacker intrusion, or
perhaps just your Internet Service Provider doing routine network
maintenance.
Most of these network probes are nothing to be worried about - these types
of random probes should NOT be reported, but you may want to report repeated
intrusions attempts. Save this email for comparison with future alert
messages.
