Either they have your password, or they used your address as their fake return address. Change your password to stop the first. I don’t think you can do much about the second.

It could be that someone else’s comuter has a virus- someone you sent mail to, or someone who has your address in the contacts folder. The virus sent mail from that other computer, using your address as a return.

So, when they bounce, they come to you.

I’d change the password right away.

There are apps that can extract data from the full header of an email, that may be informative.

Good luck!

Thanks for the input. I’ve disabled my FR email address.

Exactly which email system held the returned mail? FReep mail is completely internal to FR, no? If this was in your outside-world mail system, then it is as a poster said, someone spoofed your address.

If this is from your redirected FR, you’ll have to disable the mail forwarding and let them bounce back as undeliverable. you@FRcom is a redirect, so anything that comes there gets sent on to whichever address you’ve specified.
