Help! Someone's forging my Email address!

The subject says it all...I'm fairly sure that someone is sending forged spam with my email address as the sender...I received 13 emails today stating that an email (supposedly from me) had been rejected because it was spam. The smtp server that is sending me these notices is a french server and all the spam messages being sent are addressed to various accounts at a russian server...
The rejection notices include the originally sent message which is written in russian (I think) and I can't even read it! What should I do?? Who should I talk to so I can get this resolved?? I've never had anything like this happen to me before...
Thanks for any advice you can give me!
-Eric

hi check with your system administrator, anyone who got access to the mail server can create an account..if possible just change your e-mail ad...
