I never sent
This is usually caused by a virus infection, most often on someone else machine. The virus trawls the infected machine for email addresses which are then used to send out infected massages to random recieents which appear to come from randomly chosen senders The apparent senders may then get replies from the targeted recipients,or failure messages if the emails could not be delivered for some reason.There is little you can do about this other than always keeping your own machine up-to-date with antivirus software and system updates. |
