Someone could be using your email address as the return address for spam. I've had people use my yahoo in the return field and I sometimes get undeliverable error messages

A virus on someone elses computer has tried to send this, and has used your address as the from address. I believe one of the latest to do this is Mydoom. But Sobig did it also.
