When I have looked into this type of issue for my unique addressing some did trace back to back-end db hacks (e.g., adobe), but I found that the most likely culprit was the 3rd-party bulk mailer that handled the organization's marketing mail. It could be a non-zeroed disk thrown into the trash or an inside job, but it almost always traced back to one or two bulk mailing companies.
