I'd be most grateful if some computer experts could help me with
this fake email I received tonight. We know nobody of this name.
Here it is with the long headers:


Looks to me like mistaken identity, not a fake mail. Yes, the
originating smtp server is at freeserve, not pipex, but that sort of
thing is not uncommon - My mails originate at f2s.com but my return
address is at mail.com. He's obviously not blacklisted either, your
spam checker

There is nothing in the header to suggest forgery. And no payload.

Why not drop this chap a line, and see if he has mistaken you for Rob
Hubbard in Newton Abbot?

PS: you have just posted your email address "in the clear" without
the word 'weed' in it. Expect cybervisitors.


Thanks Bob. This came as email too and I've answered that way.


You've just posted Mr Edwards' address too. Whoops!
