Here guys, has anyone ever heard of spoofing? Well, you can send an email and say it is from whom ever you wish, there is no limit or rule on it (if you know how sendmail works).
I would say that some SPAM agent is harvesting email addresses from this list and pretending that it came from users on the list. You can tell the difference if you look at the header of an email - this will indicate from what IP address the email came from. So please be careful about this before you accuse anyone of sending spam - it's an old trick used for many years now so just be aware of it.
All the same .Mac and Mail.app should have better email filtering.
