Seems like mails are generated from malicious scripts,

Try this link /http://blog.rimuhosting.com/2012/09/20/finding-spam-sending-scripts-on-your-server/

Hello

Try running the following command:
Code:
awk '$3 ~ /^cwd/{print $3}' /var/log/exim_mainlog | sort | uniq -c | sed "s|^ *||g" | sort -nr
This may help determine which directory most the SPAM is coming from.

Thank you.
