First, let's start with the fact that the attachment was a virus. Second, 
I've often heard it expressed that sending attachments to the entire list 
is bad form. Finally, I'm going to assume that this was out of ignorance 
and not malice.

Look more closely at the long headers for the e-mail. (ctrl-click on the 
header and choose, "show long headers"). I'm willing to bet you're 
address is imbedded somewhere in there.

The poor schmoe you got it from is either infected or a virus-spreader. 
The only reason you didn't catch the bug is your running a Mac (hurrah!) 
I just hope no one on the list is checking the list using their Wintel 
box for some reason.

Unless you know the sender, I'd trash it and forget it.
