Last time I saw this, I was using PINE, and I'll explain.. Generally, a message is labelled as who it is "From:"; however, it's smart enough to recognize you, and realizes that a whole bunch of things labelled "Andy Hood" are not entirely helpful (especially in, say, a sent-mail or saved-items folder) so it replaces the From: with the To:.. which in your case is To:alt.ascii-art.
