that does not come most likely from your account.

An email is a pretty simple message that can be faked from beginning to end.
One can send easily messages using another address in the header - no matter from where the message really was drafted and send.

What kind of messages were send using your email address?
Do you have one that you can pass me on? I'm a software developer who's working on messaging systems - this is my kind of trouble.

 I'am not sure, I'll ask the person to send it to me if he or she still has it.  Edward

Hey Torsten...there's the main clue...INCOMING mail probably is the culprit!

Edward, please do so. They should forward it to you and you can send it to me.
I can tell you some about the message when I see the source code behind it.

Just get the IP address from within the e-mail.

I would just go on gmail and dump yahoo.
