Subject: Thanks for sending us info about your Firefox crash Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2013 11:25:35 -0600 From: Mozilla <Mozilla@e.mozilla.org> Reply-To: Mozilla <reply-fec41671716d0d7f-20342_HTML-80113913-1065730-9308@e.mozilla.org>
Your Firefox crashed.
We're so sorry.
Dear Firefox user,
Recently, your Firefox crashed and we're really sorry about that. We'll use the crash report and comments that you sent to try to make sure it doesn't happen again. Until then, here are a couple of things you can do to prevent further crashes:
1. If you're not already using the latest version of Firefox, please download and install it now from mozilla.org.
2. Please check out this support article, which explains how to troubleshoot the cause of a crash and how to get help fixing it.
Thanks, Mozilla Firefox
P.S. This message was sent by one of our friendly Mozilla email bots. Please don't try to reply — they're terrible at receiving email. Instead, you can give feedback directly to our Firefox developers (real people) at our Input site.

The email appears 100% legit however i only use firefox as a backup browser and dont use it more than 2-3 times a month i just did a check on my firefo to see if it ever crashed without me remembering and it says this.
"Submitted Crash Reports
No crash reports have been submitted."
How do i resolve someone else using my email add whe nthere submiting crash reports?
Thanks.

I do not see how you can. If you were receiving the emails purported to come from you, you could report them as spam with copies of the whole messages including all the headers, but if you are not the one getting them, how can you report them?

I dont think you understood me. It is my email address that keeps getting these messages sent to them by mozilla due to someone else a 3rd party who is def not me using MY email address to submit crash reports so i get the automated responses back from mozilla from a crash report i did NOT submit.
I am the person receiving the emails. Do you or anyone know the mozilla email address i can use to report abuse?
Can you use the original email address where the crash reports are supposed to be sent to report the abuse?
My point was that if you had access to the original messages claiming to come from you, you could do something about it by sending copies to an anti-spam or anti-abuse organization. If someone sends messages to someone else claiming to come from you, you do not have access to those messages.
