VERY clever virus or genuine email?

Sorry to ask a dumb question but have you replied to the Administrator to check why your mail address is expiring? It seems to be a bit harsh for your e-mail addy to expire for no reason.

Im stumped on this one...
I dont normally open ANY emails from addresses/people i do not recognise but this email looks like a genuine message but...
Has an attachment message.zip
From: admin@my company name.co.uk
To: enquiries@my company name.co.uk
Email body:
Hello there,
I would like to inform you about important information regarding your
email address. This email address will be expiring.
Please read attachment for details.

Best regards, Administrator

Why would any message be "zipped"?
Can i scan a .zip file to see if it contains a virus before extracting?
HELP! This is either REALLY important or a virus.

As e-mail addresses can be spoofed extremely easily, anyone could have sent a mail from admin@your-co-name.co.uk
Trust nobody.
I'd say it's a virus.
