This is probably a stupid question but I could do with some confirmation
of what I think is happening. I've been receiving a lot of 'return' emails
claiming they have been returned as I have a virus. Example below:

It generally just means somebody with you in their address book has a
virus. The virus picks both to and from addresses out of the address book
to hide the real origin.
