I am currently receiving a few thousands email a day with more or less the same message.
Is my server being used for sending out spam or am i merely being misused as a false sender adress? If someone is using my adress as return adress only but not using my server to send from i am faily OK with that. But if my server is being used for sending spam i want to stop it as soon as possible. However i am not an expert on reading mailserver logs so i need your help.
Below is a typical message. I have changed my domain name with [mydomain]
