I have today morning set up an outgoing firewall on my server that doesn't
pass any other packets towards your server than to port 25, or being part of
an ESTABLISHED TCP connection (for example reply packets when you send me
mail). I am watching the counter on the DROP rule that drops all other
packets. It is zero.

I also spin up a server at AWS that I sometimes use for testing (normally it
is down), sent a few e-mails between my server and the server at AWS, and
then ran tcpdump the whole day on the AWS server watching for any packets
that are coming from my server. Nothing came.

So I find it highly improbable that any strange packets can be coming from
my server to yours. I don't know the source of these packets.
