Thanks Martin,

It turns out that the old Senior Admin / Department Head who set this stuff up 
is a member of this list.  He found me on IM last night and gave me a clue.

You're exactly right, it's a custom script being called from crontab.

This message doesn't appear in the Bacula source code, so it is probably some
local script you have.  I would look at the email headers to see where it
comes from and then look for suspicuous cron jobs or Bacula jobs with type
Admin in bacula-dir.conf.
