If you're referring to SpamCease, it seems that these are, on the whole, not
genuine auto-replies but are themselves from a spam email address harvester
masquerading as a spam-blocker and using faked From: addresses. Ignore them
or set up a rule to junk them.
(Although there does seem to be a genuine SpamCease challenge-response
spam-blocker, all of the emails I've seen here are clearly fakes and not the
genuine thing.)
Cheers!
