odd e-mails
Calum:

"whom" cannot be used in this way. Also, "isn't" should not be used as you are talking in the perfect tense. [edit - and i'm not 100% sure of the correct usage of the word "actually" either...]
this clause should be "actually it was not i who received these emails". You could use "whom" in the following way: "actually it was not i for whom these emails were intended" however the meaning here is not identical to that of the original clause.
Maybe you should ask Mr Perez to give you English lessons!
Just being pedantic!
anywa, i thougt it were well funny hear this what happened to you just because by use outlook in windows! I laugh and laughed! :D

I wonder.. does anyone with the slightest bit of technical knowledge use IE + Outlook + XP together?
IE + Windows XP == You can be logged off of your workstation (without saving) from a web page
Outlook + Windows XP == You get viruses. Lots of them.
IE + Outlook == Visiting web pages will give you viruses which will redistribute themselves to friends in your Address Book (yet another reason to make your Address Book full of people you hate)
