plain and simple, im getting emails from my own account of

You can look at arin.net to see who owns the IP address. As far as stopping the emails from your own email - there is not too much you can do. It is very easy to set up a form to create these emails - almost anyone can do it with just a little programming knowledge.

Just make sure your email server is secure so emails are not being sent from your email server

Setup an SPF record [webmasterworld.com] for your domain. That qualifies the senders of the mail. You can then filter out mail that doesn't pass the SPF test.
