nowhere, I'm afraid. And I hope you didn't launch the attachment.
This one sounds like another message carrying 
I-Worm-Sircam. The sender address is randomly picked from any address 
list on the affected pc.

You could check the message headers to find the IP the message 
originated from, run a Whois to identify the provider and mail abuse@
asking them to trace the user connected to that IP at the time the 
message was sent, to suggest him/her an urgent virus scan on the 
sending machine.
