My email was hacked. If you get any emails from me it is probably not me.
You can text to confirm.

Sorry,
Deane

Actually your email doesn't even have to be hacked for this to happen. It just gets "harvested" and then used as the "From Address" in outgoing emails. They don't even have to hack your email account to do this.

I got a notice from domain name supplier that I had exceeded the number of allowed emails to be sent and my email account was locked. I called them and they talked me through the fix and told me what had happened.

Anyway, I hope it is all cleared up now.
