I have been trouble shooting a similar problem over here for a Trusted
domain that has an SMTP relay server for virus notifications.... It seems
that some mails are going out but many are remaining in queue. After
looking to see if it was an open relay, I visited Spamhaus.org and it seems
that Sprint.Net (that domain's provider) has been added to Spamhaus.org's
blacklist just today. Qwest communications is also out there... It seems
that their mail was being blocked by Spam software using Spamhaus.org as a
blacklist tool.
Pretty freaky.

No, it's not an open relay. Any other ideas?
Thanks

Sounds like you are an open relay and some one is relaying SPAM through your
server.
Have you looked at any of those messages to see if they are legit or spam?
