When I type mailq on my server, I get:

(there is probably about 50 of these, and I've cleared the queue today), do you know where these could be coming from ? is it my server sending some logs to "hostmaster" ? I've replaced my actual domain, with "MYDOMAIN".

How can I find what could be sending these emails ? The server has recently been hacked so I'm also a bit worried.

Thanks!
