The receiving server accepted the message before attempting to reject
it. As a result it likely bounced based on the email address pointing
to your domain. That address was forged.

This is known as backscatter spam. The receiving server should not
have rejected it after it had made a decision to receive the email.

You may wish to consider adding SPF records for your domain. These
won't necessarily stop people forging mail as being from your domain,
but will make it less attractive.
