any emails from addresses you don't recognise or are suspicious of, put them in your junk email box immediately without openeing them. after few days the junk box will empty automatically (on hotmail anyway) - if you open them, then they know it is a live address.

you can very often unwittingly download suspect email with spyware attachments with them soemtimes even viruses.

NAO - I know why you get them!

You joined the yahoo group where we shared pics of our bumps etc when we were ante-natal. As with all yahoo groups, you can send messages to members, so this is simply a message from that group.
