It seems Geico is searching the web for email addresses.  This seems to be 
from Geico. It's odd that I am a policy holder and they assume that this 
address is my address since I have never confirmed my address to the 
company.  Good thing they don't send my policy information in the message!

Look at the "From" address  From: GEICO DIRECT <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Now why would they use a user account called internetpasswords?  Also if 
you go to the mx they are using in the message below, you get redirected to 
http://www.interactive.com/  go there and check out "Dr. E-Mail"  According 
to his webpage, a lot of companies use this service.
