I just won first price in the Diablo 3 Computer Giveaway (headset, mouse and mousemat, I think), but I have not yet received the email that the contest site states I should get when winning. I sent a message to WoWHead, but I have not yet received an answer as to whether this just takes time or something has gone wrong. Does anyone know how long this usually takes and if I should be worried and try to contact them?
The reason I'm asking this isn't because I am dying to get the things, but because I have a little hypochondriac in me that's telling me that something has gone terribly wrong.

As a previous winner, let me tell you that while winners are announced as quickly as possible, it may take some time to set up the emails notifying the winner individually and send their prizes.

Alright, thanks, now I can relax a bit more.

I'm fairly sure the prize process is actually handled by someone at ZAM and not Wowhead (directly anyhow), so that connection can sometimes take a bit.

If you haven't gotten the email, how can you tell that you've won?

The site achievement "A WINNAR IS YOU!" is granted upon winning a contest, which he received for the Diable 3 contest.

Yep, some contests can take a while to coordinate with sales, especially when shipping prizes is involved. A few of us were at PAX East this weekend as well.
The winning emails have been sent out now and the contest page,
http://wowhead.com/contest=diablo-3-computer-giveaway
, should also give an idea of who has won what.

I'm sorry, but from whom is this email supposed to be sent? I first got one from feedback@wowhead.com, and just now I received a second message from apirouzmand@zam.com, which one of these am I supposed to reply to? I suppose you can't do much damage with name and address but I really want to be sure.

Amir is one of our sales/prize people, usually an email from feedback@wowhead.com is automatically sent when you get the achievement. For some reason, the automatic emails from feedback weren't sent when the achievements were granted, so I sent out those emails this morning around the time Amir sent similar ones.
