i try to be careful... I even risk not making contact with someone I know if I think in is a bit on the "unknown" side. so, yes, be careful out there.

If a file is attached to a E-mail and I am not expecting it , TRASH IT /
I also use the lookup of who sent it if someone I don't know and subject line is in question . Outlook allows some options without actually opening E-mail to see the sender and IP

I don't know but in Mozilla Thunderbird you click on 'view source' to see everything about an email. problem is good ,er , BAD 'spoofers' know how to make it look like it's coming from a real person...... Hopefully you've got 'scan attachments' enabled AND you EMPTY your 'trash bins' often !

I keep getting emails from a cousin that passed away almost 2 years ago. His name comes up as the sender but the email address is strange.
