This looks like something from the queue. Is this email you're trying to send?

The error host_lookup_failed means either your DNS isn't working or the hostname doesn't exist.

Hello,

Took me a bit to figure it out, but the spam is from a remote box, being sent to your domain. There is a catch-all forwarder setup to deliver to gmail.

In essence, you're spamming gmail indirectly. I highly discourage the use of catch-all's. Forwarder are also bad for this reason: you end up spamming your forwarded value via spam to your domain's account. (SpamAssassin may have different rules vs Gmail as to what spam is)
