I keep getting spam emails supposedly sent from my own email address. When i go to *block email senders* I get a msg saying i cant block emails from my own email account.
I have a bogus email contact as my first emaill recipient.
(eg: Aaa_aa@aa.com.au )Thats supposed to stop generated bots sending emails to your contact lists, and as far as I know, my account isnt sending OUT emails to my contact list, only to me.
(1) How is this possible?
(2) How can I stop it happening?
Its always from sex sites and the sort!
I'm getting at least 10-20 every few days.
Waaaaaaa 
Is there a computor nerd who might be able to help me
Pppppppllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......
thanx folks

Firstly clear cookies n temp internet files manually. Check by view files to make sure none remain.
Then clear browser history.
Then run windows defender doing a full scan and fix any errors/files etc. This can take a while.
Restart computer.
If you don't know how on the above let me know and I will walk you through it.
I also had spam emails coming to my junk folder supposedly from my own email.
Turns out they make it appear as coming from my own on several levels but is actually coming from somewhere else.
There is a way to see where it's coming from within the program info but can't remember how.
Thanks Kopes and Taz.
I'll try that next time I have a spare 3 hrs to work out how to do what you both just said.... LOL
and erm.... Stawks...... ummm... thanks for 'nothing' LOL 
I appreciate your solutions. I'll try them tomorrow.
Thank you xxj

Right click on the Email so that you don't open it and then scroll down and click on View message source.
Scroll down and you'll get to Received from,(that should show you where it's actually coming from).
@Taz, I just tried that. I didnt get anything to *scroll down* to. It just came up with my own email address. This particular account is @live.com ...........one of the freebies.
It's the same account that an UK ebayer accidently used to link her own ebay account too by mistake a few years ago and I was getting all HER messages from ebay saying she'd won this and that! It might jog your memory, I wrote about it on here...LOL
In actual fact, I got a email from some Land evaluation mob in the UK a few weeks ago, thanking me for my enquiry LOL... Obviously, she hasnt got a bleeding clue on what she's doing..... a bit like me 
I had 58 spam emails this morning.
52 were supposedly from my email account. Ive selected *block all* and it did, but it never does block the ones from my email addy. I'm heading off to try Kopes suggestions now, while i have time...
Cheers folks.

Ok, Kopes,
Ive completed your suggestions, so we'll see how it all pans out.
I've also set up daily optimising and analysing too.
I'll give it a couple of days, and come back with the results.
Thank you
