This e-mail is a fairly standard Phishing e-mail where they threaten to close your account unless you respond. At first glance if you open in html it looks official and appears to come from a legitimate e-mail address, though it states new-egg.com not egg.com. It should also be noted it is fairly easy to spoof an e-mail address anyway.
however the plain text versions shows you will be directed to a different site
