Mass spam

My server is being used as spam for emails, I am getting hundreds of return emails a day that look like the following.

(aw-technologies.com is my domain)

Does anyone know how to stop this and what is causing it?

***** COPY OF A RETURN EMAIL ***** Hi. This is the qmail-send program at Mserv-1.skylineteknik.dk. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

skri@skylinemail.dk: The mailbox on the server is now 100% full. So that you can not continue to receive mail. /Mailboksen paa serveren er 100% brugt, og kan derfor ikke modtage din mail. /

--- Below this line is a copy of the message.

Howdy,

Do you see any messages in your outgoing email queue on your server? You can view them by going into Webmin -> Services -> Postfix -> Mail Queue.

If so, seeing the email headers of an email trying to go out would help in identifying it's source.

In most cases though, either an email account on your server had it's password guessed, or a website has vulnerable software running that spammers are taking advantage of.
