receive message failure w/o sending message

Some viruses & worms are sent that way. They are fake "undeliverable mail"
notices. Just delete them and do a complete virus scan with up to date
definitions.

why do i receive delivery failure on messages i have not sent?

Someone else has you in their email address book and their machine is
infected with malware. That infection is using your address as the sender.
It's sending a message to an address that can't receive messages and the
router in that domain is bouncing back an error to the only address it has:
yours.
