i  have received  several klez mails over the last  few days.  all were
  sent to an email address i havent used  except for the type2 list,
which i havent been on in while.   klez takes  a random email address
and puts it in the to address, then takes another random address and
puts it in from address attaches itself to a random selected email
attachment, and then  when you send your next email it goes on its way.
  for klez to functiion it needs  Windoze outlook and  associated
address book.  Mac outlook for newer versions uses the system address
book.
