I think you are confused about something. Those bogus returned messages
weren't sent by your machine - they were originally sent by someone else
with your address as the reply-to. They got to you because the address
they were sent to either doesn't exsist or they rejected the mail.
You could add any filtering/blocking you wanted to your sending, but it
wouldn't change this. What you want to do is filter and block these
bogus return messages.
