Ok, it seems that we were being used as a relay. I have now close this per info here and there (from the forum and such). And as far as I know we are not relaying per the ISP provider and such..

During the above and such I notice many entries inside this smtp virtual queue. Yes, they all failed but I want to clean them up (they were all remote retries).

I went back to SPAMCOP and they still reported the following?

A sample sent sometime during the 24 hours beginning Thursday, February 05, 2004 4:00:00 PM -0800:
Received: from [xx.xx.xxx.xxx] (-.-.-)-

You can right click on each queue and click on Delete-no NDR to delete any pending messages to retry delivery. Then refresh the Vitual SMTP and you should see them start to drop off. You cannot click and high-light all queues, unfortunately. I had customers that had open relay turned on and I was called in to clean it all up. They had in order of 1800 queues and it took a while to clean them all up, but eventually I weeded them all out.
