It's possible that it's a joe job, when someone puts your from address
on spam and you get the bounces. Looking at network traffic either you
aren't sending much or it isn't actually going through your server.
Check in /var/log/maillog and see if they are going in and out, or
forward a bounce message with full headers to the list.
