Dear Valued Member,

www.gmail.com

Thank you for your attention to this question. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Sincerely,Gmail Security Department Assistant.

Seems odd as I have been using gmail for ages. No one else I know with a Gmail account got one.

361839 2005-06-07 07:36:00 This (gmail.google.com) from the gmail site says that all url's from them will be from http://.gmail.google.com not www.gmail.com.
I would just ignore it.

361841 2005-06-07 07:51:00 This a phishing e-mail doing the rounds at the moment.
A phishing e-mail is one that appears to be a legitimate e-mail coming from what looks like a legitimate source asking you for private information such as your username and password or to click on a link to validate your e-mail address.
The messages are coming from virus infected computers probably from the latest MyTob virus.
Ignore and delete them
