Don't listen to it, it is just another spammer.
Thunderbird warns that it is a possible scam.

Absolutely :-)
It fooled my spamassassin.

And if he were not, he would have clarified by now.
Someone that sends what looks like a business letter to an individual,
by name, to a list mail address, showing that he doesn't know what
that list is about, is suspect. He is either daft, or it was mass
email, not really targeted.

Searching on the "from" name, he is known as spammer:

So that nails the coffin ;-)

Well, your spam filter was at a disadvantage here because the message 
came to you via the XFS mailing list, not directly from the spammer. By 
passing along the spam, the mailing list is adding some legitimacy to 
the message in the eyes of most spam filters.

Speaking of spam, when are we going to move to a mailing list 
infrastructure that has functional spam filtering (and doesn't repost DSNs)?
