Dick,

I get those things occasionally, and I put them directly into my junk 
mail folder and forward them to the phishing email for my ISP provider.  
Although they look real, careful inspection shows that they are not from 
the ISP provider.  My ISP would never ask for an account number and 
password to be sent via email.

Be safe and be aware, call the phone number on your billing account for 
your ISP before sending email to any requests like that.

73,
