Has that proven to really be anthrax?

The stuff sent to the Daily Jang is the only stuff that seems it was anthrax - or at least it has never been stated that the final tests were negative. Of course, the Chile anthrax was also real anthrax, but not Ames.

Of course, the Chile anthrax was also real anthrax, but not Ames.

Actually, it turned out to be botched labwork in Chile, likely cross-contamination (was painfully difficult to follow up on that one.) Not much publicity because the CDC didn't want to sho up the Chileans.

So other than US diplomatic mail cross-contaminated from the anthrax letters to Daschle and Leahy, EVERY single one of those supposed international anthrax letters turned out to be bogus.
