Is it possible for someone to do this send an email with my e-mail address in the senders part.I know its possible that some one has my password and that could be the cause of it.But i am interested to see if this can be done thanks...

Sure it's possible, in Outlook there are to, subject, and from fields so I could send you an e-mail (which would be sent from my server) but would display a senders anme of whatever I typed in.
If you view the e-mail headers as html, you will see the actual address and IP of the pc it got sent from (if you use Yahoo mail, this is quite easy you will see the option right away)

Check in the sent mail box to see if you sent a email to yourself because you might have sent the message by error.

I've sent emails to myself before now by mistake. I think most people who use Outlook Express have (!!!)
If you click on an email in your sent folder and hit "reply" in order to email them again hitting the "send" button will actually direct it back to you. I have done this many MANY MANY times (!!!!)

Is the email one you have replied to? sometimes people send a mail to you but also a cc in case like this if you use "reply all" you will send it to yourself.

For your security, change your password immediately.
Also think of removing contacts you don't know from your contacts book.
Wish you good luck :)

Yes, I've had these before to. They're SPAM mail and all you can do is deal with it when it arrives.
