Or choice "c."

A webot harvested your email address from this (or other) newsgroup
and is spoofing your address. Same thing happens to email addresses
that are listed on web pages. You get the "blame" for mailing virii
when, in fact, someone has stolen your address for nefarious, evil
purposes.

Bwahahaha. <grin>
