It looks like someone/something (probably one of the spam-viruses) was using your address in the "From" field. I see a large number of these at work, since our e-mail addresses tend to be in quite a few people's address book. So they get infected, and we see the bounces.

I haven't heard of any Linux based spam-virus or trojan (yet), so I'd bet good money it's not you.
