This goes double for spammers.
In the example given, the addresses in the 'From' line matched the
addresses in the 'To' line. My guess would be that poorly-written software
is somehow to blame. Perhaps someone took a function that was originally
written to target a single address and started passing a string containing
multiple addresses, forgetting that the function puts the same value in
both 'To' and 'From' fields. Or perhaps something isn't splitting out
multiple addresses properly.

Out of curiosity, which config file would this go into?
