Mistaken identity

Imagine someone emails you out of the blue thinking you are someone else. You try to explain, but as the story pans out, it seems that these two people - your correspondent and his absent friend - have a history where she pretends to be someone else to avoid him. How do you convince this person that you are not who he thinks you are?

You'd have to act in some way that contradicts his assumption somehow, but everything I can imagine can also be explained by the liar scenario. I'm afraid I don't have an answer.
