For some additional reference, here's part of a Nielsen Alertbox article on transactional e-mail that says that these types of e-mail messages tend to be very well received:
"Websites often let people send an email message through their site to a friend or colleague %u2014 they might, for example, forward an article or inform a friend about a recommended (or wished-for) product. Participants valued receiving these messages mostly because they were a personal recommendation from a friend or trusted party. To strengthen this effect, it's important that such messages feature the friend's name prominently in the sender information and that the friend be able to customize the email with a personal message."
