It was sent to me by 'me' and I didn't send it.
The sending and receiving addy are the same.
The Subject was "Wife Out of Control" and it contained a 9 kb .dat file.
Here are some portions of that email which I opened with NotePad Plus after submitting it to 3 different websites and MBAM, SAS and Avast for checks.

it is mime encoded spam... they're trying to get to to go to some web site... probably an infester site... if you don't send mail to yourself, set up a rule to delete them... either way, it is spam...

you're probably wondering how i know it is trying to send you to some web site... i know because i paste the block of mime into an online decoder and read the results ;)

That is a form for you to fill out in order to remove your email and to confirm the email address at which you received their email.
