Big Email Problem Tonight

Hi,
I logged onto my email tonight (outlook express) and received approx 3,000 emails mostly they seem to be undeliverable mail, and have been sent back, I think that someone has got hold of my email address and is sending out bulk emails, this has been a small problem for a long time, but I have just deleted them as they come in, but I have never had such a large volume of emails, I tried to contact Orange but am unable to call them till tomorrow.
Has anyone any advice, they are still coming in thick and fast, but Iam deleting them as soon as they come in without opening any of them. Help would be appreciated.
Thank you
