I would guess that your system accepting mail from unknown servers?
Start blocking those, and you'll find that these bounces will drop
significantly. Hard to tell from your sanitized error report...
Well, I have no idea what is missing in my previous post. Could you
please tell me what's missing?
Here's excerpt from logs:

What I understand, my mailserver, mail.example.com, accepts mailer
delivery report from another mail server (IMHO using broken
configuration) SERVER.hipwah.com
(static-ip-114-118-134-202.rev.dyxnet.com [202.134.118.114]), which is
not included in zen.spamhuas.org, so my mailserver accepts this report,
because there's no reason to reject it. As far as we don't look inside
message enveloped in report which is sent From: "Tasha Dunn"
<hip...@hipwah.com> To: "Camille Mason" <hip...@hipwah.com> (here I'm
talking about message header, not SMTP session - of course I have no
idea what values had MAIL FROM and RCPT TO) by Received: from
212-95-32-105.internetserviceteam.com ([200.232.187.171]) by
SERVER.hipwah.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.3959);
with X-Originating-IP: 108.30.184.78 by smtp.212.95.32.105; Sun, 25 Jan
2009 16:41:53 -0700
and Message-ID: <mam7rj.0309g198hip...@hipwah.com>
I think that this server should not permit this message (rather than
bouncing it), but this is just a guess, as I have no idea about SMTP
session which permitted that mail (which was later bounced to my server).
The only place where I can see address from my domain is in return-path.
Still I believe this happens (at least partly) because of wrong
configuration of SERVER.hipwah.com.
At lease looking at zen.spamhaus.org I can see:
200.232.187.171 is not listed in the SBL
200.232.187.171 is listed in the PBL, in the following records:
* PBL065609
200.232.187.171 is listed in the XBL, because it appears in:
* CBL
which tells me that SERVER.hipwah.com is not using zen.spamhaus.org or
is open relay for hipwah.com addresses and/or 200.232.187.171 ip, but
these are just blind guesses - no idea about configuration on remote server.
