receiving emails (not spam) not sent to me

L

I have a VERY strange thing happening. I have been receiving sporadic emails
sent to acquaintances of mine, but not to me. In one case I received
something from Shutterfly that the album owner swears did not send to me. In
another case, a friend sent an email to her mother, and it arrived in my in
basket. She sent another as a test and it also arrived in my inbox. In
another case I received repeated emails from a friend of the mother who does
not know me nor do I know her. In another case I received an email sent from
a health insurance company to this same mother. At first I thought the
mother's pc was infected, but she told me that her pc is not even connected
to the internet now so it could not have gone thru her pc. I have no
affiliation with that insurance company at all, and they have no reason to
send me copies of emails to another individual.

I have never attempted to intercept anyone's email. I have run adawere,
Norton antivirus, Zone Alarm, and have just recently run trend-micro online
to make sure I'm clean.

Following are headers from some of these emails: (I have changed the "To" to
other than the real names to protect privacies here):

And another header follows from her son from an email he sent to his mother
as a test to see if it came to me, and it did. He swears that he did not bcc
me.

I am stumped. How is this happening and what can be done to fix it?
