Delete it and move on. It really isn't worth wasting time on working out who
this individual is. You are also using a Wanadoo email address so will be
subject to their own internal IT security successes and failures.

To be of any interest at all though you should post the email headers which
will give some, possibly, useful info. From this you might be able to see
which IP address originated the email then email abuse@ for them to deal
with.

Just delete it and don't be surprised if you receive more emails like it from
other email addresses.

Cheers,

Ian
