        Maybe you should do a port scan to confirm it's an FBI exchange server. Maybe try to log in or something to confirm. I hear they are fine with this. (this is sarcasm, don't do this)

        Hey! If they send ME a spam they're gonna get port scanned. If they don't like it they can talk to my attorney. Trying to log in would be a big red line however. Nobody should try that unless they live in Russia or China. (Hint: Both the Russians & the Chinese already tried.)
