That appears to be a SPAMMER who is faking a user ID at your domain in the
from address.
The dumb mail server of some of the recipients hasn't worked out that the
headers are forged, so it is returning the 'unknown address error' back to
you instead of the source.
What it should do is look at the headers to see that it is faked, and just
bin it without doing nothing.

It appears to be from:


201.230.112.161
client-201.230.112.161.speedy.net.pe
Host reachable, 488 ms. average

201.230.112.128 - 201.230.112.255

So I would forward on to them:

That is unless of course your server is acting like an open relay (which it
is not).
