This is a screenshot of the email I got today from paypal@email.paypal.com. It is an offer to use paypal and ebay together on your mobile phone.

What is interesting is that page view is of ebay.com and not m.ebay.com and i am not sure how they got that favicon working in mobile safari, but it doesn’t work here.
