I received this e-mail via the Metric Martyrs' website. It appears from his e-mail address that he works for the European Commission in Brussels.
We will be registering an official complaint about misuse of official equipment and foul and abusive language once we find out exactly which department Mr. Jones works in. We have offered him the opportunity to apologise and he has not done so. Any further information about this unsavoury employee, especially if he has contacted other organisations or individuals with offensive comments, would be appreciated before we hand it to our press contacts.

Look at the email headers and see what mailserver it came from (and/or, what machine sent it to the mailserver).
With english / spelling like that, I'm doubtful if it's real.
