what e-mail sent it??
If you have problems, FIRST TRY SOLVING THEM YOURSELF, and if you get errors, TRY TO ANALYZE THEM, and ONLY if you can't help it, THEN ask here.
Otherwise you will never learn anything if all you do is copy-paste!

more interresting : what is the REAL address behind the url ? They often use an URL whose text is some real site (paypal, for example) but the link points to another site which mimicks the real one...

The Q here is.. from where did they get the mail list? :S

1) better not answer. Either it's telling that you're a "valid" target (that you do read yur E-Mail) or you're answering to someone who didn't know some mail had been sent in his name (spoofing)

2) better is to contact blizzard with the full mail text... Most important is the URL hidden in the mail (not the worldofwarcraft address but the hidden one behind that link)

3) train the message to your anti-spam program (I think that Thunderbird has a decent anti-spam system, outlook express is not a mail program... it's junk !!!)
