Hi, It's important to remember that the from address shouldn't be used to confirm the validity of a message. If you receive a message from [email protected] you can be certain that it's not from Apple, but it's very easy to fake an @apple.com address so please don't assume that a message is genuine if it supposedly comes from apple.com.
Cheers, Ben.
