Mail hostname has a historical HTTPS footprint, not a malware link

A hostname designated to receive mail for `lru.li` also appeared on an HTTPS certificate observed at `49.12.115.177`, giving investigators a specific historical infrastructure lead. The records do not establish that the address is a current mail endpoint or that the malicious executable used it.

That match gives the IP a specific investigative context. But does it identify a mail server used by the malicious executable supplied alongside these records? The evidence supports a narrower finding.
