Start by searching your logfile for the QUEUEID displayed by the
"mailq" command.

The "usual" source of unwanted bounces is accepting mail for
undeliverable recipients rather than rejecting such mail during SMTP.
The postfix method of recipient validation depends on the address class
of the recipient domain.
http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESS_CLASS_README.html

Also note that any address matched by virtual_alias_maps or
*canonical_maps is considered valid, so "@domain @domain" wildcard
mapping effectively disables recipient validation.

OK, so you have some bounces in your queue. We already knew that, so this posting is rather useless.

You'll need to investigate where your bounces are coming from by examining your log - find out why postfix generated a bounce. Start by searching your logfile for the QUEUEID displayed by the "mailq" command. You can also examine the contents of the bounce with

# postcat -q QUEUEID | more

The QUEUEID is displayed by the mailq command in the "QUEUE ID" column.

You'll need to do those parts of the investigation yourself. Come back with details if you need help interpreting what you find.
