Is this email legit?

    I recently signed up for a blogger account and added adsense to a blog I made.

    I thought adding adsense to my blog could be entirely done through blogger's dashboard...but then I saw this email in my inbox:

    "Hello,

    You are receiving this email because you recently requested access to
    use
    AdSense through blogger.com. In order to use AdSense features through
    blogger.com, you'll need to give the site access to the ad
    code and performance information in your AdSense account. To do so,
    please
    follow this link:

    LINK EDITED

    If you believe you've received this email in error, or have any
    questions,
    we suggest you contact the owners of blogger.com.


    Sincerely,

    The Google AdSense Team"

    Are emails such as the one sent to me actually from blogger? I'm suspicious about doing anything through a link in an email.

    It seems nearly all emails from google are automated ones.
