I'm getting like 20 or more emails a day, but the email address it's coming from is my email address...what do I do to prevent this? Someone is sending me a bunch of emails with my email address.

Do you use a public email provider or an in house mail server?

Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another

Have you tried changing your password?

Also, are you SURE it's coming from your addy? Check for subtle differences, like a 1 instead of an I, 0's in place of O's etc. Also check to see if it's coming from a site like "hotmail.ru" or something.
