No, that does not mean your server is a spam relay. It means that a spammer
is attempting to send email to valid email addresses within your
organization. When the spammer hits an invalid email address, an NDR is
generated by your system.
Your system then attempts to deliver the ndr based on

Spam comes in for ex-luser.
NDR tries to go back out as it should.
Return address was fake, so it waits for the retry period to expire.

Well, technically one could use you as a relay by sending a mail message to
a valid mail recipient on your mail system with a valid return address on
another domain (to receive the NDR). It's a lame and inefficient way to spam
