lately I have been getting emails returned as undeliverable

[mitchtv]

for various reasons. The problem is , I never sent them. Is someone fowarding my emails, or using my address?

1. spam?

Old spam trick, to make the message title read like that. DON'T OPEN THE ATTACHED FILES.

2. Spoofed email address

Unfortunately the people who designed the SMTP email protocol never invisioned "spam" so they didn't make it difficult to make bogus "from" email addresses.

Many Email admins are turning off the "undeliverable" message responses since there are billions of them each day on the web - most of which are caused by spam.

3. Um, dude, the ones I get have attachments on them...

They probably contain viruses. DON'T OPEN THEM!
