Email Forging

Forging an e-mail header to make it appear as if it came from somewhere or someone other than the actual source. The main protocol that is used when sending e-mail -- SMTP -- does not include a way to authenticate. There is an SMTP service extension (RFC 2554) that allows an SMTP client to negotiate a security level with a mail server. But if this precaution is not taken anyone with the know-how can connect to the server and use it to send spoofed messages by altering the header information.
In some jurisdictions, e-mail spoofing anyone other than yourself is illegal.
now a days sending a Spoof mail or Forged mail had become very easy
we have ready made software and websites to send spoof mails
one of such website is 
you can send unlimited spoof mails from here.
Remember Gmail stores mails from such websites to spam
so you can see it in spam folder
spoof mails can also be sent manually (the best way) and the method to do it is explained in my previous post
