Now you know why most people use fake email addresses in their posts. There
is no solution other than to change your email address and be more prudent
in future.

Two observations about these mails:

- Email from "Microsoft Security" is not from Microsoft, and if it
contains an attachment, that's a worm. DO NOT OPEN any of it, just
delete it (better, set up a filter to delete it before it even hits
your inbox). Also don't bother sending mail to abuse@domain for the
apparent sender -- the worm fakes the From address, so you'd just be
adding to the problem.

- Talk to your system administrator at work. They should have
server-side spam filters to get rid of the junk before you see it.
