Please clarify. Did the From line contain your email address (m...@email.com ) or not? You seem to be saying two different things.
If, as I suspect, someone is merely forging your address to post to the list, there are two things that you can do (I would recommend that you do (1) as an immediate and temporary measure, until you can get (2) in place).
(1) Moderate even your own postings, so that your list moderator password is required to post, even if "from" your own address.
(2) Improve the spam/virus filtering on your mailserver. A forged message from an open relay containing a virus should have been stopped by your mail system long before it reached mailman.
