More Information on Unsolicited Email (SPAM)
SPAM is usually sent using automated programs to hundreds or thousands of email addresses at once.
If you have received email from a sailorbits.com email address, and you do not know the sender, or you did not ask for the email to be sent to you, you are probably a victim of unsolicited email or SPAM. The email is probably the result of email spoofing, and likely has not actually originated from any of our legitimate email accounts on the domain sailorbits.com. Email spoofing is currently a widespread nuisance, and we too are daily victims of spoofing, receiving numerous emails, often containing viruses or trojans, from apparently legitimate email addresses. Our computers all have current and properly configured anti-virus software, and our web host also uses anti-virus and anti-spam screening tools when processing emails. More information on spoofing may be found at http://www.cert.org/tech_tips/email_spoofing.html. A simple analysis of the email(s) you've received from a sailorbits.com email address will assist in confirming whether or not the emails you have received are spoofs. The following data below shows the details of 2 test emails I sent: 01) to one of my personal email addresses (xxxxxxx@hgcbroadband.com) from my SailOrbits Admin email address, admin@sailorbits.com. & 02) to the same personal email addresses (xxxxxxx@hgcbroadband.com) from Our Newsletter e-mail id news@sailorbits.com. These details were extracted by opening the received email in Microsoft Outlook, then selecting "View" and "Options..." from the message menu bar. Microsoft Outlook Express and other email clients have similar features to permit viewing this Internet header data. Once the "Message Options" window opens, there is a section showing Internet headers and that is where the below data came from. If you analyze the header data, you'll see that in this case the mail was received from a mail server at sand.lunarmania.com (67.210.111.20), which provides mail services for our web hosting company. The mail server at sand.lunarmania.com received the message from www.sailorbits.com at an IP address of 74.50.29.211, which is our hosted web space IP address.
ANY GENUINE EMAIL YOU RECEIVE FROM A LEGITIMATE SAILORBITS.COM EMAIL ADDRESS SHOULD SHOW ORIGINATION FROM BOTH A LUNARPAGES/LUNARMANIA MAIL SERVER AND THE DOMAIN IP ADDRESS 67.210.111.20.

If you examine the Internet header information the next time you receive unsolicited email from any sailorbits.com email address, you will probably discover that the mail didn't originate from a sailorbits.com mail server or from www.sailorbits.com (74.50.29.211). If - after checking the header data as described above - you find that you DID actually receive unsolicited email from a sailorbits.com email address, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know. Please forward the email to me at admin@sailorbits.com, or paste the Internet header information into the email you send so that I may have a look at it. I should be able to track down the source of the email if I have the Internet header data from the messages.
