You cannot prevent someone from using your mail addy.
Only thing you can do is asking the recipient to give full header info of
the mail in question and then try to find out who the bad guy is. This
may be next to impossible if the bad one is a good one and if he did not
only use your addy but also did some ip spoofing.
