receiving massive delivery status notification (failure) emails
 

New to Outlook 2007, all set up but receiving massive (and I mean massive)
delivery status notification (failure) emails from postmaster, Mailer-Daemon
and mail delivery system and/or subsystem. Can anyone help me to stop this?

Depends. If the NDRs (non-delivery reports) are in response to messages you
are sending, then you have something incorrectly configured and youj'll have
to elucidate on errors contained in those NDRs if you want help. If, on the
other hand, they're NDRs to addresses to which you KNOW you haven't sent
anything, then it would appear your address has been hijacked and is being
used by some spambot on some PC _other than_ your own, but since the
original messages appear to come from you, the remote mail servers that
can't deliver the messages are sending the failure notices to the only
address they have: yours. If they have enough in common, you could create a
rule or rules to delete those messages. Otherwise, ignoring them is about
the best you can do. They should taper off after a while.
