You don't need to do anything.  Someone has "spoofed" your account. 

Spoofing is when the sender address and other parts of the e-mail header have been altered to appear as thought the e-mail originated from you. 

If it had been actual spam from your account it would not go through EOP and appear in you notifications.

If you use Outlook 2007 or 2010 to read your email, you can use the Outlook Junk E-mail Reporting Tool You can use this tool to report junk e-mail to Microsoft and its affiliates for analysis in order to help improve the effectiveness of their e-mail filtering technologies. http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=18275
