My thought is its from an email validator from some spammer confirming my email is valid. However I don't know much about email at all and this is just a guess. Its been happening a few times over the last few days so I'm getting a tad peeved over it. Any thoughts? Flipping houses in Sacramento market has been fantastic.

I know there is a message to just remove any possible virus. That might be the case. The message might have just been a worm, your filter stripped the worm out, and sent you what was left, nothing.

Have called ISP and of course there as dumb as I am about the issue. No help there. its really a pain in the butt cause I have the emails forwarded to my blackberry. Bad enough to get junk spam but when theres absolutely nothing there at all,, then it really gets on my nerves! Flipping houses in Sacramento market has been fantastic.

However since its a primary email address I use for my work its more of a hassle then simply sending a few updates to friends etc. Its happening so frequently its pissin me off. I wish I could at the very least block the email comming from the IP's but comcast is beyond lame and that option probably isnt even thought of yet let alone a choice.

I have not done anything fishy with this email, infact, I use my yahoo email for all registrations and my comcast email only for personal affairs and certain registrations where I am spending money. So it doesn't make sense to me that the email I am more careful with gets more spam than emails I'm less careful with. I'm also wondering why both of us just started getting all this blank email spam with our comcast email address at the same time. I have been getting quite a bit of other spam with this email address and am about at the point where I'll just dump it completely and use my gmail for main emails... I can post my headers too if you're curious. I'm not at my computer right now so don't have access to them...Although I could probably check the email online and there will be about 10 new ones, however, I'm too lazy to try to figure out how to get all that information through the online mail interface.
