[SLUG] Masquerading as me

I'm getting a lot of bounce messages from destinations on big networks.
Someone is spamming random names on large networks like hawaii.rr.net
and cox.net using my email address as the "From". I can route the bounce
messages to /dev/null, but that's not really the point. Anyone know how
to stop the masquerading in the first place (other than not having your
email address visible anywhere)? I know, probably a dumb question, but I
had to ask.
