Spam emails from my own email address!!

I was just sorting out message rules for the latest load of spam in my inbox when I discovered that one of the emails (Viagra - what else?!) I was about to create the message rule for (to immediately delete on receipt) appeared to be from my own email address! When you highlight the offending email then click on message rules, after creating the message rule and just before you action it, a box comes up and says: Are you sure you want to create message rule to delete future emails from the sender myemailaddy@tiscali.co.uk

Has my email addy been hijacked in some way? I thought I read about something like this in the latest Webuser but I can't find the item again.

Any ideas?

I use Outlook Express
