Subject: The great smtp mystery


I receive a message in my inbox sent to an email address that does not
match my own (completely different domain name). I use nslookup to
resolve the domain name of the sender's address and the domain doesn't
exist. The following day another employee receives a similar email with
a "to:" address that does not match our domain. In both cases the
recipients first name matched that of the first part of the email
address. 

Example:

Say my name is Jay and domain name is yahoo.com
I receive an email in my inbox sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - I have no mx
record for delta.com and my server is not configured to route delta.com
inbound.

Can anyone explain this?

Thanks,
Jay
