Gab,
That's an easy one to answer... Someone you sent an email to has their computer infected. Their system has harvested your info and chose it at random to send out SPAM with your info forged into it.
What sucks is that you'll end up getting all kinds of bounced mail messages and auto responses from anti-SPAM systems. It happened to my business email address. It's a pain in the ass but nothing much to worry about as long as you don't end up on some SPAM list.
