When you start getting mail from yourself, it's time to worry.
Google will stop at nothing to add to their address book; even using yours to mail bulk spam. They know my e-mail address has been hijacked, so what do they do? They deliver the mail, no matter how fraudulent; no matter how malicious...because embedded in all that is an ad for a Canadian Pharmacy. They have even assigned a bogus IP to my address, indicating that I have given permission for such.
We might want to be wary. First the Internet...then the world.
