You can't make any such assumptions. Haven't you found out already how
trivially easy it is to send email and news postings under any name and
email address? Bigfoot seems to get its database from Usenet postings, and I
think some humorist once sent a message to rec.music.gaffa with the
pseudonym "kate@novercia.com".
