I am receiving 10's of return emails per day that have been undeliverable. I did not send purposely send them and they appear to have spam content. How do I stop sending the spam?

Usually this means that a spammer has compromised the mail account or PC of one of your contacts, and is forging your address as the return address in the headers of his messages. The bounce messages from mail servers that reject the spam come back to you. You should check your own mail accounts to make sure there's been no unauthorized activity. You can create a Mail rule to delete the bounce messages automatically.
