Check your system, can anyone relay trough it. also check your
mail-queue, it usually is a positive sign of an known open relay if it's
full of mail not sent by your system or authorized systems.

also check if you are listed at orbs or other systems like that.

i would suspect an open relay from these messages... (well not if you
have sent those mails to all of those aol.com addresses.)
