It doesn't look like the message
was mailed to me.
This is what is known as address masking.
Address masking is the process in which your address is inserted into
the email as the recipient, but the email shows a completely
different recipient.
Another similar type of tactic is known as
address spoofing, in which junk mail appears to be sent by you that
really was not.
Below is a link that informs you on how to
read the header of an email. From this information you can
determine where the email was sent from, where it has traveled to get to
you, and who was the actual recipient.
