There is nothing in those headers that suggests they have been
authenticated on your servers. They _may_ have been authenticated at
204.9.186.196 (Florida), but nothing 100% sure.
Anyway, you should request that everything coming from
something@yourdomain is either authenticated, either coming from a
trusted or known IP. Many will suggest this is like SPF, and it is a
little bit true, but I think this is an acceptable drawback for your own
domains.
