Satoshi email is actually doing a beta test of the bitcoin tracking system (beta just like the bitcoin client!). For every email you forward to satoshi, he will pay you 1 bitcoin. For every person you send it to who also forwards it onto satoshi, you will receive 0.5 btc. I thought this was a scam too but after sending emails to satoshi, I received 1 bitcoin!

Not sure if being legit or just some fail joke!

It's a lame attempt at the old scam/joke/whatever that was put a bunch of years ago that if you sent Bill Gates an email he would send you money, send it to your friends and they will too.

Sure, some of us used it to talk to him a long time ago. As far as anyone knows it hasn't sent any mail for years. GMX is a webmail provider by the way.

Before GMX Satoshi used a mail service specifically designed for anonymous usage, but he didn't want people to realise it was a pseudonym so he quickly switched to a more popular and generic host.

So what did you talk to God about? "Hey God, whassup? Love the whole Bitcoin thing but I have to tell you the pits in avocados are way too large dood." lol
