Did it actually have an attachment?... If so, it probably didn't actually go
through the mail system.   Instead, it was spam that captured your email
address from someone else's computer and used the list email address as a
"cover".    It may even have come from that other person's computer because
they've had their computer converted to a "bot"   

(The term "bot", short for "robot", is what we in the cyber warfare world
call a computer that has been taken over by a "bot master" and used to
disguise the origin of messages.... the world of "bot" management is so
sophisticated that you can even rent bots by the hour!... Usually sold in
lots of 10,000 or 100,000 computers, the bot masters allow you to use those
computers for whatever nepharious purpose strikes your fancy.    And, if you
are having difficulty getting your bots to work for you, they even have
"help desks" where you can call for technical support!.... The cyber world
is rather complex nowadays.   It really pays to stay vigilant.)
