Oh, the irony. ;)

I just got a personal email from pinky.goyal22 at gmail.com:

"Sincere apologies for my error that caused automated emails to be  
sent to you from the address pinky at evakoss.com. I was working on a  
support ticket system for a client and when testing the system I  
didn't realize that the system would send a support ticket in response  
to your email I've received and responded to in the past.

I'm very sorry and will take extreme caution so this issue never  
occurs again."

But I've never communicated with this person in my life.

I'm really battling to imagine an entirely innocent use-case scenario  
for scraping mailing list archives for email addresses and names.
