Um, I think this is spam.  I think they are fishing for personal 
information that they can use in some way.  If you sent them something 
by mail, then they would have your mailing address at a minimum. 
Obviously, I don't think anyone would send something... but then they 
work on percentages.  If there is a 0.5% chance someone might, and there 
are 400 people on this list, 2 people might fall for it.
