Every day, I get mail delivery attempts to non-existent users like:

These totally bogus user names are not a good dictionary attack.  I
don't know what the spammer is trying to accomplish, since delivery is
impossible.  The user portion almost looks like a mail queue message
id.

Anyone else seeing this?

I've found that greylisting (postgrey) helps tremendously with crap like that.
