Why?.

It's trivial to spoof any 'from address' in an email program.

If you set your program to 'display all headers' you can see where it's actually come from, and the path it took.

I often send home emails from work, and 'spoof' the return address so the replies go to my home email.

I repeatedly get an email "from myself" saying "Eat this --> Poop Daily"

Changing the password is pointless, the bot doesn't have to crack any passwords in order to send these emails and make them look like they're from someone you know (or even you).
