Mimi Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hi, this might sound a bit trivial but I am a little perplexed because yesterday I received an e mail from Le-guide-Michelin@infos-privees.info which was not actually addressed to me. I am with SFR and the first name was the same as mine but the second part of the address was completely different eg. sandra.******@sfr.fr I was just wondering if anyone knows how this could happen.

A look in the email headers might indicate what is going on.RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimi Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Thanks Pickles for your reply. It is a genuine e mail (albeit a marketing one) from Michelin. The header and message properties show that it is only addressed to one person. Obviously a blip on the servers somewhere along the way. My God! I get enough of these emails trying to sell me stuff without getting them for other people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
