You are free to believe what you want, but the email is real. The X poster forwarded the email to Dave Innes and Les Goldman last night, seeking a explanation.
I still find it funny people will believe all sorts of stuff from posters they do not know, or from friends who think they are in the know (all who have been wrong 100% of the time), but when cold hard facts or evidence are staring them right in the face, they shrug it off as "fake". Humans are funny creatures for sure.
