I just got a letter in my mailbox that says, in its entirety:
From: Lanes D. Compartments <xxxx@niab.se>
Subject: Bonjour.

Hello, playmates! :)

Mar sin leat

I truly have no idea. "Mar sin leat", incidentally, is Scottish-Gaelic for "Good-bye". But who do I know in Sweden who speaks Gaelic? (Unlike almost anyone reading this--except [livejournal.com profile] keyne--I actually had to think about that for a bit.) There's no homepage for the domain and "niab" rings absolutely no bells for me. Is there any way to find out who it's registered to?

From: [identity profile] tyrannio.livejournal.com
whois -h whois.geektools.com niab.se yields a referral to whois.nic-se.se, no names, a registrar status of REGISTRERAT, and a suggestion to use the web search for more info.

Looking at www.nic-se.se and doing a search, I get a holder of Norrlands Insekstaet AB.

But the From address makes me think it's spam. Can you post the full headers? My guess is that the Received: lines will never have been anywhere near Sweden.
