Hi All,

I would expect mail sent to bad addresses to bounce, but maybe I'm 
missing something.  The following code snippet does send mail to good 
addresses, but mail to bad addresses don't seem to bounce back to me.  I 
suppose I'm missing some header, but I don't know what it would be.  Any 
ideas?

<?php
        include_once('Mail.php');
        include_once('Mail/mime.php');

        $hdrs = array(
                      'From'    => 'me at mydomain.com',
                      'Subject' => 'email subject',
                      'Return-Path' => 'me at mydomain.com',
                      'Reply-To' => 'me at mydomain.com',
                      'Return-Receipt-To' => 'me at mydomain.com'
                      );
        $mime = new Mail_mime("\n");
        $mime->setTXTBody("sample text");
        $mime->addAttachment('/tmp/sample.pdf', 'application/pdf');

        $body = $mime->get();
        $hdrs = $mime->headers($hdrs);

        $mail =& Mail::factory('mail');
        $mail->send('nonExistentUser at mydomain.com', $hdrs, $body);
?>

BTW, I checked, and the mail is not falling into a failover or other 
black hole that I know of.  For example sending to 
"nonExistentUser at mydomain.com" from my desktop mail client gets me a 
bounce within a few minutes.  Any thoughts?
