Phishing Attack or Bad Blizzard?

[Monkey]

So I wake up this morning to find a helpful email from Blizzard, reminding me to renew my account before The Burning Crusade. "That's odd," I think, "My account is active right now. Well, I'd better just check..."



In my early morning stupor, I clicked the link, entered my account information, and realized that this is the model for a textbook phishing attack (in that order). I immediately changed my password and scrutinized the headers of the email and it looks legitimate to my untrained eyes.

Code:

Which brings me to my point: Did anyone else receive this email? If it wasn't legitimate, well, I hope all other recipients were sharper than me. If it was legitimate, what was Blizzard thinking, sending an official mail that looks like a phishing attack?
