Re: Strange Prof. Email...
[ QUOTE ]
Possible tangent: I'm a computer noob, but a few years back my friend X sent an email to someone (as a joke) where he changed the email source (he pretended to send the email from a girl Y he knew). Basically, the email said it came from Y, but it actually came from X. If you looked at the code, you could see the real source, but it fooled him. Do some email applications still allow this? I tried googling but with no success.
Oh, when the person replied to the fake email, it went to the actual girl. Oops.

My school e-mail system in undergrad you could put whatever name and e-mail address as the sender and just tab yours over so far to the right that it wouldn't show up.
If it was a joke, unless the person forgot, it'd suck to keep him in the dark this long.
