Thank you,

It came from Japan (docomo.ne.jp). Do you know anyone in Japan? If not,
then it's spam.

Can it be from 220.194.46.155 which is said to be in China? Or can it
be from a server of docomo in China?

You're right, that's a Chinese address (China United Telecom). I missed
that line. The docomo reference appears fake.
