Does anyone know if the following mail is an ebay spoof?  I think I've
got an account with them, but it's been so long since I used it...  And
the site requires you to sign in in order to make a report, or request
info -- apparently ebay does not provide a direct contact email address.

Bayes won't learn it - to any sufficient degree - as spam either (below,
is after sa-learn(ed), though I have no ham ebay tokens (debug info does
show a hit on the forged helo rule:

debug: forged-HELO: from=ebay.com helo=ebay.com by=pair.com
debug: forged-HELO: from=ebay.com helo=sjcbat01 by=ebay.com

but I'm using the default score, 0 so it does not show in the SA
header):

Dear [EMAIL PROTECTED]

eBay is constantly working to provide a safer and easier trading
experience for our members. In our ongoing efforts to prevent
unsolicited and possibly fraudulent email, we have decided to allow only
User IDs that do not include an email address. This policy takes effect
immediately.

Your User ID includes an email address, and must now be changed. To
avoid any interruption in your ability to trade on eBay, we have chosen
a temporary User ID for you:

New User ID: bhoover6iqa


Your password and email address on file have not been changed. You will
not receive a 'Changed ID' icon because of this change.

If you would like to change your temporary User ID, please sign in at
http://pages.ebay.com/ with your new User ID. Then use the 'Change User
ID' feature (Preferences area of My eBay) to choose your new eBay User
ID. If you have any questions, you can learn more about the 'Change User
ID' feature and how it works in our Help section.

For more information on this policy regarding User IDs, refer to 'User
ID Policy' in Help at http://pages.ebay.com/.

Regards,
EBay
