Hi,
Those event logs were generated by your SMTP virtual server which tries to
send out NDRs to remote mail servers.
Why NDRs? I believe that you have some internal romote domains configured in
your SMTP virtual server, when spamers try to send spam to your remote domain
through your smtp server which is not a email relay, your smtp server will
accept those spam email and trys to send to your internal remote domain, and
got refused by your internal email server, so your smtp server has to generat
NDRs to inform the sender.
I don't know if we can turn off NDr at the smtp virtual server.
