Wrong Email Address

This has only happened twice in the last 2weeks, but I just wondered if anyone knows why it happened.

I emailed 2 different people, but when they clicked on reply, it changed my email address and added a 0 into the address. Hence their reply to me was bounced back to them.

Should I be concerned?

    It seems surprising.
    Download, install and run Malwarebytes' Antimalware (the Free version) and see what it tells you.

    What are you using to send the email from?

    If it's Windows Mail (or Outlook / Outlook Express) then open the Accounts and have a look at the "Reply Address" in the account properties.
