It looks like someone spoofed your domainname in a spam run and you're receiving the bounces from the systems where the messages where delivered. Being the victim of domain spoofing before, I have good news and bad news. The bad news is, you probably won't be able to stop the flow. You too now have first hand experience why it is extremely bad to bounce or report spam (and virusses alike) messages back to the apparent sender (MAIL FROM). Conservatively speaking, there will be many thousands of systems who are queuing bounces or warnings for you and unless these messages are either delivered or rejected, they probably will keep on trying to deliver them for a couple of days. The good news is that probably in about a week time the majority of bounces will either have been delivered, rejected or dropped out of the outgoing queues, so if you have some patience, the problem will be solved by then (unless someone seriously hates you and keeps on spoofing your domain). Good luck! Arjen
