>>Hi,

>>How could Gmail email make a mistake of sending me emails addressed to someone else? His (the other person) email does not have a period in the email address. The rest of the email address is the same. I even called the sender (this is a legitimate organization) to let them know and we were both surprised that in their system the email address was entered correctly. Yet I am getting his emails.

Interesting point. How do you see the email header in the Outlook 2010? Thank you.
