I am regularly receiving spam emails from my email address with no contact
name to reply to, requesting personal details. How do spam users manage to
set up the same email address as a yahoo user?

They spoof it. Since you are not going to send yourself an e-mail,
simply add your address to the blocked senders.

That's not particularly helpful, Bob, especially if like me you forward an
email from your works email account to your home account to work on a
document later!!

Then it isn't being mailed from your yahoo account to your home, is it.
Please think about what you are blocking and where.
