That's Not Right: TurboTax 'Return Accepted' Email

Continuing my saga of the poor design of this year's TurboTax program, I just got an email informing me that a federal tax return, that I sent in electronically, has been accepted.

They don't address the email to me by name, so it would be pretty confusing if I'd send in more than one return already.

Here's what they say:

From: TurboTax.Electronic.Filing.Center@intuit.com
Subject: Federal Tax Return Accepted
Date: April 3, 2005 4:07:49 PM EDT
To: undisclosed-recipients: ;

This year I'm both a web AND desktop user since I used that free file program on the web for my mother-in-law.

Certainly they should be able to send me an email with my name in it that includes the version of TurbTax I used to file the return that they are talking about.
