no offence dude..but please read the post before making any replyes...

 

[thecyclone2k]

It is some sort of spam only, I tend to get these kinda emails often. There might not be attachments with it, dunno why these kinda emails come, useless without even viruses. I wud suggest, just delete 'em straight away. It might be mail server error.

 

[expertno.1]

well u should block the addrees from the mail box

also

i think its spam see XXXXXXXXXX@yahoo.com

aslos it might be server error

but probabaly its spam

so no need to download just block and edleete it

 

[GameAddict]

Nothing to bother about...the spammers are using your address to send spam i.e. "FROM:" field has your address, to skip past the mail filters. By this trick, the one who recieves the mail (read spam), sees it coming from a "proper looking" mail id. And if the "To:" field id. does not exist, the "Recepient not found" error comes to your inbox.

In short, you can't do anything about it! Maybe take precautions with your next mail id.

Yup. Better create another id rather than waste time fixing this.
