Dear Vocalisters, it is very common for "from addresses" to be forged in SPAM and VIRUS emails. ie, once your email address gets on to SPAM lists you are likely to both receive SPAM/VIRUS emails and have your email address used in the sending of SPAM/VIRUS emails.
So, an email from xyz@s... does not necessarily come from xyz@s...
A virus apparently sent from mightymezzo...,. therefore, in no way means that the actual mightmezzo has any virus on her PC
