No, that isn't OK.

"Spam" is a term used for unwanted or bulk email. Please explain what you mean by "hijack" and "spam me".

And, specifically which two add-ons are doing that? URL of those add-ons on the Addons.Mozilla.Org website would be helpful in identifying the 'culprits'.

Some e-mail providers have an option to sort incoming mail. Check with your provider.
