I recently received this message for an email I had not sent, yet from
my domain.

Can anyone tell me what this is about?

"Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON@unicc.org>

When a computer has been enhanced with a virus, it will often send e-mails
that you do not expect.

I suggest you scan for and remove any virual enhancement that might be on
your machine.

It's just telling you that the users address the email was sent to is
invalid. You probably forwarded an email to someone without striping out
all the original headers and this particular address is bad.

That's a far rosier outlook than my idea of a virual enhancement.

The virus check yielded nothing.

I think the computer was writing to the Office for the High Commission
for Human Rights.

Something has upset it or sombody using this computer or memory stick
even, has drafted an email to OHCHR and it was left in the memory
somewhere. Something kicked it into life and it was sent when the
computer was switched on. Or the OHCHR is a front for a spy network
and is reporting on the emails I am sending and something went wrong.
Well those are my theories!

Either your machine is infected (a virus checker can miss it) or someone
has your email address in their Contacts, their machine is infected, it's
sending out emails using your email address, and it's being retuned to you,
when the address is invalid where the email was sent.

This supports the idea that you hit the Reply All button and sent a message
to a bad e-mail address. You might have a copy of the original message in
your Sent Items folder.

If a message came to you, and you replied, AND one of the addresses was
incorrect, then you would get a Failure Notification. The notification is
telling you that an address you sent to is invalid. More accurately, a
message left your email account bound for another email account and the
recipient account does not exist as it is entered. My guess is, mthere is no
such account with elipses ( ... ) in the address.

Check the "To" line in the header and see if there is more than one e-mail
address listed. It could be a bot trolling your domain server for active
e-mail accounts.

Consider them as SPAM; they are forged.

The mail server appears to be equipped with a spam filter. One
of the techniques used, is mentioned here. Undoubtedly many
techniques are needed, to make the spam filter effective,
as the perpetrators probably have copies of that software
they can test themselves. Only constant tuning of such a tool,
keeps it effective.

Just a guess,
