  As Ken has pointed out, these notifications has little or no value
 nowadays.  If you insist, however, I think you should be able to
 accomplish this by using the 'fakereject' verb after having added a
 magic header (using 'warn').  Then you could look for that header in
 one of the first routers, and send it off to an 'autoreply' transport.

  Never tried it practice though.
