What e-mail did you receive initially? Can you paste the contents here (not your login credentials of course)?

The password reset form lets you enter a username or e-mail address to begin a password reset. There's nothing stopping another user from entering your username, which will then send an e-mail to you. It's completely harmless because that won't reveal anything to a third party, but somebody could be probing for security holes.

Edit: Was it this e-mail?

^Yes, that's the one.

Somebody most likely entered your username into the password reset form. The forum software doesn't send e-mails spontaneously like that.

Your account should be safe, but let's keep an eye on things to be sure.

Very weird... Thanks for the replies, Jay.

You know what? I'm starting to think there's a bug in my computer. I just had to re-activate my account at another forum for no apparent reason...
