Hi,
I have an issue with an un-related company who has a similiar domain name to me.
I have several times over the last 3 or 4 years advised their Postmaster of the amount of their mail I recieve. I have also offered mail redirection for a nominal fee.
Frequently emails intended for the other company contain what appears to be contractual content and have this sort of footer on their emails

This email transmission is confidential and intended for the addressee only. It may contain privileged and confidential information. If you are not the person or organisation to whom it is addressed, you must not copy, distribute, or take any action in reliance upon it. If you have received this message in error, please notify the Postmaster@XXXXXXXXXX.com and return it.
**********************
Morally, I can see that I should not be reading & profiting from the content of these mails, however where does this sort of footer message stand legally (in the UK that is).
Presently I bin these mails. Is it my responsibility to manage and protect an unrelated 3rd party's confidential documentation that is incorrectly addressed to me ?
