Perhaps, but the headers are pretty convincing.  I suggest that Roman
take the matter up with Google.

I incline toward the troll theory. The spam showed up in my inbox about the
same time as a legitimate post from Roman, which is the perfect time to troll
a fake spam, but too time correlated with Roman's post to have been run up
the approval ladder in a competitor.

That is possible, but the message seems to have come from a google server:

Received: from mail-ew0-f236.google.com (mail-ew0-f236.google.com [209.85.219.236])

It also has DKIM and DomainKeys signatures, but I have not verified them.

Guys, have you heard about this? It's called hotmail. You want to write a letter to your friends? Just click compose, write, send. Need to send a recipe to a friend? Look at this: It's got attachments. You just click upload, ok, send. Wham, bam, hotmail spam. It's so easy, your mother could do it. Speaking of your mother, have you written her lately? You don't want to write her, she's making you cry, she's making me cry. Watch this - out of office reply. No more letters from mom. It's that easy. And if you sign up now, and I'm talking in the next twenty minutes, because we can't do this all day you know, we'll not only give the inbox, email address and spam filter, we're also gonna give you the ability to search your mail and save drafts. So what'dya waiting for? Sign up now. www.hotmail.com
 
Arthur.
