The whole "system" is a number of people creating a code all together, this code loops and is there for a "system".
System Zero could also be confirmed with one word "Hacker's"

Sucks, I wouldn't know what to do, I don't play WoW
~You are a glitch in my reasoning.
It's obviously not a real WoW email, it's obviously a scam as it tells the recipiant to login to their account if they didn't try to recover their password and it doesn't mention their account name at all (plus the URL is fairly clearly jippy: "www.worldofwarcraft-wowaccountmangent.com") combined with the fact it's partially blocked on Firefox for being a scam. Assuming your email address isn't mrgrim77@peoplepc.com (dialup!?) then it's fairly apparent that you are the one sending the emails (also why would you be getting delivery fail notifications otherwise? it's in the fail notification) which would suggest that you have fallen prey to some malware which hopefuly in the future you wont do again in the future. Maybe it's time you stopped running every .exe and .scr you see as well as getting some decent anti-virus/malware such as NOD32 (or if AVG if the price on NOD32 makes it unavailable to you). I haven't had this problem my self (being as amazing as I am) so I can't be more specific.
donotreply@blizzard.com is the From address, my guess is that your STMP and POP3 logins are linked (hotmail for example) so if there is a fail with the SMTP at the sending stage (not receiving) then it leaves the error message in your POP3 instead of sending it out to the "From" address, maybe things like hotmail have their own outgoing spam filters or it just fails if the From doesn't match your address.
