am forget my password of mac,did you give me password on new email marko.[redacted]@yahoo.com

My response, even if I were a paid customer service rep, would have been: "What?"

Seriously, "did" instead of "could"? No capital letters? No space between the comma and "did"? Etc. etc. etc. The mail just doesn't make any sense. Reading it makes me want to cry.

The reply was probably: "Yes I did. Apple thanks you for your business"

Well, it's not an excuse, but believe it or not, there are many non-native English speakers that use .mac. Some of them may even have a name that looks very similar to Marko Karppinen.
