Sorry, false alarm.

First I tought the messages are comming from different servers because there was a lot 
of different IP's in the last days. However it looks like this messages are comming 
all from the same home computer and was send from dialup-IP's.

The user has configured our smtp-server for outgoing messages but hasn't activated 
SMTP-Auth. There are a lot of real email-recipients, but also some containing only 
special characters. The sender-adress is even "<>".

Looks like this guy has an email worm on his computer...
