seems some spammers are using one of my personal domains as the from field in their emails, the local-part being random so I cant easily block it.

Has anyone any advice on tracking them down and making them stop?

I and a number of coworkers are getting similar bounces, except the spammers are actually using our full email addresses as the from address. The first few cases of this, I wrote off to things like KLEZ...but recently I've gotten actual spam bounces where my work email address was the original from.

I suppose it could possibly still be something like KLEZ and it's grabbing a spam from their inbox and sending that out with a forged from.

There are known spamming viruses making their rounds that I believe behave like klez and others that use known email addresses. A couple of our customers have been infected by them and have had their computers unknowingly sending out spam.
