In the Unix world, I can send an email to you from the command line, using something like mailx or even sendmail, and make it look like it is coming from santa@thenorthpole.com if I wish. This is not that hard or trivial to do. Its called SPAM!

If this response was a little cryptic, read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smtp.
