Did you actually confirm with all addressees ? that what actually they are getting because someone else using a mass mailing Worm where you already in there address book. The Worm spread out through email to everyone in their address book. try to use Malwarebyets with updated data ..

Yahoo email accounts have come to realize that hundreds of Yahoo e-mail accounts have been hacked . So what you can do is change password do not download any suspicious file . if you think someone has accessed your account without permission you can report also better change password after every few weeks now try this
