So you're saying it's an internal thing?  Odd that.  Nonetheless,  I'm 
relieved to hear that.  I wouldn't want you all to think I'm touting  Cealis or 
somesuch;-))

I've  gotten spam "from" myself!

I also get them from addresses that forward  to me (such as 
pointskeeper@midiv.org) from which it is impossible for me  to send.

Your address is being spoofed. This is why the old line about  "trusted 
addresses that you know" is no longer valid. As a result I never  open an 
attachment to a message that has no text. I have, on occasion,  sent a 
message back saying "did you send me an attachment? if so send it  again 
because it was deleted here" while explaining why bald attachments  are not 
good things to send. I organize my inbox by subject and can pretty  well 
tell 
from any message's subject whether it's real or spam. As I'm  scanning my 
inbox, the cursor hovers over the Delete  icon.
