I agree, strange things happen with email.

I have had several welcome emails from different programs I didn't join. I eventually gave up clicking the unsubscribe link and sent them to the trash instead.

I simply assumed it was some overzealous person signing me up into their group.

Something a lot more worrying was when I received a couple of emails from myself. No kidding, they were addressed from my own email address to the same email address. When I checked the headers, I saw that they must have originated from some other country. What bothers me, is that others must have received emails "apparently" from me, which puts me squarely in the firing line to be accused of spam.

How can this happen?
