suspicion

When I got home from that trip, the first thing I did was delete over 100 spam scams from my email.

Then just now I got this:

"Hello there,

I would like to inform you about important information regarding your
email address. This email address will be expiring.
Please read attachment for details.

Best regards, Administrator
sarswirw"

It came from an email address that appeared to be my ISP, but my suspicious nature kicked in like a bolt of lightning. Do email addresses expire? I've never heard anything about that. And do ISP's ever begin an email in such an unbusinesslike manner? And what the heck is a sarswirw? The whole thing smells like fish to me and I'm going to be very surprised it it is on the level.
