Assuming you haven't mixed up the myIP and hackIP parts, this means |
| 6 |
something on *your* system/network is trying to contact an smtp server |
| 7 |
on what you are calling hackIP. TCP/IP connections are initiated with |
| 8 |
a SYN packet. If they are accepted, you get a SYN,ACK packet back. |
| 9 |
If they are rejected, you get a RST,ACK back. |

Running 'host <hackIP>' might prove enlightening. |
