I received the same message Subject : Challenge Response Received: from mail.tcwireless.us ([67.108.86.20] verified) Your message ... has been just received by gmail.com mailserver. I assumed that this is a phishing scam due to the from / mailserver mismatch, which I think this confirms. Regards Marshall On Oct 7, 2008, at 4:16 PM, Howard C. Berkowitz wrote:

I don't have an appropriately air-gapped browser to visit that link, which rather screams "scam phish". Anyone know anythig about it?
