I don't understand the question. It's just spam. You can easily fake who spam is from.

I could very easily send you spam with a subject line of "Delivery Status Notification (Failure)" and make it look like it's from hotmail... OR.... i could send spam to some bad address and make it look like it's from YOU, and then when it bounces, you'd get the bounce.

I assume there was some sort of link in the email, because if it was just text like this, well, that's kind of pointless.

It was for Viagra online.

This is HOTMAIL, though. is a hotmail service. (If you try to send an e-mail to an unknown or bounced address, your e-mail will be sent back to you.)

Sole reason I opened the e-mail & read it. When I saw it was spam for Viagra, I ignored it.

Question which confuses me is, if it was sent by the hotmail staff (postmaster) how could they mistaken my address with his? This type of e-mail is not the first, there have been many sent to my address in error. Makes me wonder about hotmail or their staff.

You are missing the point. I can very easily send you an email from or from your own email address or even from if you would like me to. It won't REALLY be from those addresses, of course, but to the level that you looked to see who this was from, it will certainly look like it is.

Just like eejit's email looked like it was from Neteller and all the ebay ones look like they are from ebay. I promise you though, those sites are not trying to scam you to get your log in info - they already have it.

You cannot send an e-mail from , that address is reserved for Hotmail. Either this cold medicine is confusing me or you are. I guess you'll have to show me.

Give me your email address and I'll send you an email from anyone you want, including that address if you like.
