Mass mailing viruses often bcc TO addresses, so even if it wasn't directly addressed to you, it bcc'ed (blind carbon copy) your address. On top of that, they spoof the return path to try and hide the source. Fortunately most can't spoof the source IP address, so the IP address on that is probably correct, which points to UUNET SA.
