Just got another one! Easycheck from selectabase.co.uk... On their unregistration page, they state "We require that our clients follow email best practice and send only permission based emails. We do not allow them to use Selectabase Ltd to send Unsolicited Emails." Talk about irony...

But of course, they'll claim they've sent the mail to [log in to unmask], not to an individual. And I'll claim it's very easy to find out on whose desk sales@ emails land in our organisation!

So I don't need to name and shame - you recognised the culprit!
