This is interesting.  To me, these messages appeared to come from
"noaa.gov"; to you they appeared to come from "acm.caltech.edu"?  They
seem to construct the return address from the recipients mail server,
perhaps by posing as a message from a local user??

Anyway, I've passed the problem on to our computer security office,
hopefully they'll find a way to block the messages.
