I got a mysterious e-mail from this address and have a sneaking suspicion that the individual is a member of this board. Anyone know who this is?

Well, it certainly isn’t me.

Was it a mash note?

A mash note? I don’t know what tht is. The subject was “oink, oink.” The sender tried to include some GIF file but it didn’t come through.

I am assuming it was in response to my pit article about women being nags, but I can’t be sure.

It’s not me. I only mention this because this board is swarming with persons with great memories, and someone might remember that my last name is Sweet. Highly doubtful, but possible. All the same, I would rather not be on the defensive.

I also have “Sweet” in my name, and it is also not me. (I’m on Hotmail anyway!)

Sweet Basil

Monty, our filter caught the attachment, so I couldn’t download it if I wanted to.

I have to say that I’m more than a little uncomfortable with this thread in that it is looking identification of a specific person. I know that you didn’t mean it the way I’m seeing it, **Mr. Zambezi** , but rather that you hoped the person who is attached to the email would pipe up and say, “Hey, that’s me!.” But as you know, SDMB members are a resourceful bunch, and I’d hate to see a big-ol’ web search and perhaps a privacy invasion come out of your innocent question.

So I’m going to close this thread. If you suspect that the email came in response to a BBQ Pit thread, perhaps you could ask in that thread whether someone sent you an email.
