How window mail help me to protect spam from my email itself

I always reveice a lot of spam emails, some of them were sent by myself???
So I dare not block it.
Please advise whether there are anyway to block the spam from myself or
clean it from my email account.
Thank.

Spammers often send emails that appear to come from your email address or have
your name in the From line.
To deal with that problem I use a message rule that if a message is received from 'me',
it is put in the Junk E-mail folder.

Note: Please check the character set you are using (Tools, Options, Send, International Settings).
That Windows-874 character set results in a tiny, almost illegible font.

But I dont want to block my message because sometime I send email from my
Blackberry and I want it to copy to my PC as well.
So I will copy to myself.
Anyway why the Spam can access to my email address and use it, that mean my
email is not safety anymore?

And by the way thanks for the note, I already changed it.

Your email is safe.
To avoid retaliation, spammers use any 'From' address except their own.
If your email address has ever been harvested by a spammer, it will be used as a
return address on spam emails some day. It happens to practically everyone,
myself included.

Incidentally, you are still posting with that tiny font, caused by that "Windows-874" setting.
