Given that you have a host running Windows on network, it might be infected with a 'spam' trojan. These are little, home-made, obscure trojans that usually are not caught by the anti-virus. These trojans keep sending spam at regular intervals can cause obvious problems. The solution too is obvious: Locate the windows box that's sending these mails and then check the processes running on it and kill the suspicious ones. A Google search for the suspicious process can be greatly helpful in ascertaining which files and registry entries are to be removed to completely banish the trojan outta your Windows machine.
Or, if your SMTP server is misconfigured someone over the Internet might be using it to forge mails and send them anywhere in the world. You may configure it properly. I don't know how to do that, so can't say anything.
