Mac Mail weirdness: Messages that won't delete

[jwhitmill]

A couple of days some spammer spoofed my e-mail address. The Postmaster at one of his targets set up an auto-reply rejecting the spam. Since the spammer spoofed me, the auto-reply comes to me.

My problem is, I can't make these auto-replies go away. I trash and delete them, then as soon as I reopen my inbox, there they are again.

And it's the same messages, not new ones: the dates clearly indicate 2 days ago.

How can I get rid of these annoying messages?

Here's a copy of one, in its entirety:



When trying to deliver your message, the mail server at dialearth.com encountered
permanent problems with the following address:
For <pork@dialearth.com>, the destination server said: Command DATA Too many messages from your domain this hour (from dialearth.com:127.0.0.1)

Thanks for any help.
