Many people have noticed an uptick of spam to lists. Yahoo was hacked. As a result if your e-mail was open when it happened and you clicked on a certain yahoo home page article (not ad) they harvested your e-mail address, password and all groups you are members of. They are then sending spam to all your lists (whether or not you have them in your address book), along any emails in your inbox or sent box. 

THE SOLUTION to this problem is to change your e-mail password.
