I got this in my inbox today, I believe it to be real, however I'll post the 
headers below. The reason I think it may be real is that there is some 
person out there named Carol Pollock who for some reason and some how is 
using the email address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] How, I haven't the 
faintest clue. Here are the headers:

Non-authoritative answer:

79.0/25.62.35.216.in-addr.arpa.
79.0/25.62.35.216.in-addr.arpa  name = arm79.bigfootinteractive.com.

I could of course throw this into my spam folder and report it with the rest 
or I could just delete it, however I'm curious as to whether its an actual 
message from them or not.  It has a valid certificate issued by VeriSign

I'm going to assume that its a vaild message and that she's again using my 
email address and that I'm getting some of her mail. This happened with 
Circuit City last month and I 'tried' talking to them about this but since 
their support apparently has been outsourced I got nowhere, the same as 
when I tried to talk to Earthlink about it.
