Javamail rejected mail not bouncing to sender

[Sheila Dunphy]

My local smtp server is configured to reject invalid internal
addresses and does not send bounced messages. I have been told that
the local mail application has to generate the bounce. I have an
Oracle Report distributed using Javamail. The problem is that when I
send to an invalid address I receive a message that there are invalid
addresses but the email does not bounce to the senders address. This
is not what I want because I need to print off and send hardcopy any
messages that haven't been received.
I think this is a javamail configuration issue. Would be grateful for
any assistance on this.

Thanks in advance,
Sheila.

Javamail is tied in with Oracle 9iDS suite of software I have not
done any coding for Javamail. The report I run uses an xml
distribution file. This contains the mail commands SEND: TO: etc. I
have no REPLY TO: set in the xml file. All works well with valid email
addresses and if the email is not a local addresses the system
receives bounced messages for those invalid addresses. The problem is
only with local invalid email addresses because our local smtp server
reject them.
