Email Spoofing

Q. So, how come you appear to have a spam email from jasonpickering.com ?

A. Unfortunately, unscrupulous individuals sometimes use an inocent website domain name as the "return to" address for their spam campaign. This practice is commonly known as email "spoofing". Email spoofing may occur in different forms, but all have a similar result: a user receives email that appears to have originated from one source when it actually was sent from another source.
This is done to hide the identity of the spammer.

It is done without the consent or even knowledge of the registered owner of the domain name.

It is a little like signing a letter with a different name and is virtually impossible to prevent proactively
