        It's not spoofing as intented to spoof just to post on your behalf. 
It's caused by a virus which simply scans the computer
it runs on for email addresses in mail clients and webbrowser caches. It then 
uses these emailaddresses at random to send email to
the email addresses found (most of the virusses operate like that one way or 
the other). As you've posted on a mailing list, your
email address ended up in a cache on the computer the virus ran on. Nothing to 
worry about.

        For laughs: I once received a virus email which tried to tell me it was 
send by me! (headers showed it wasn't, but ok, it
scared me a little ;))
