Spam Wars: Repeat After Me: "The From Field is Forged"
“Spammers and crooks know it: Lots of email recipients treat the From: field as if it must be telling the truth. If an email message that makes it to your inbox says it’s from Joe Blow, well, by God, it’s from Joe Blow.
This blind faith about unsolicited email messages is what gets so many computer users into trouble.”
