I doubt it was from you. These days, most email Trojans scan the
address book of the victim's copy of Outlook, and use it as a source
of email addresses. Not only do they send to that list, but they
masquerade as having come from those addresses.

As a point of netiquette, when replying please trim the quoted
material. This was a 30KB message for one paragraph of payload. Thanks
