400, you realize that you can give a phone number and not all people will get back to you either? Or how about someone stopping by and saying they'll be back in 10 minutes to buy a trailer I was selling along the side of the road, 9 years later I'm still waiting......
Last fall I got an e-mail for a Liquifire I was selling on c-list. I returned the e-mail with a number and a day later a got a call and the ole I'll be there tomorrow and never show. So don't blame it on the e-mail only on the original c-list. I got the no show after talking on the phone like you suggest.
It's common courtesy to get back to a phone message or an e-mail, but many people don't. Have you ever called on an item, leave a message and never hear back? Been there, done that. The same goes for e-mails. However an e-mail if free all the time. Making a lot of toll calls for items only to leave messages and can get expensive.
Sending an e-mail and asking for more pictures is also a benefits. How many time do you hear or may be involved with driving for hours to get to see an item that was misrepresented? An e-mail asking for more pictures might save that road trip.
Back to the OP, treat all e-mails as real the first time. If you're questioning it, ask if they want more pics or to set up a time to look at it. If it's spam, most people won't write back. If they do write back, usually you can figure out if its a real or "honest" buyer.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
