Temporary Failure bounce message to sender

Hello All,

Wonder if it is possible for James to send temporary failure messages to
the sender.. if James is going to retry delivery of an email.  

ie - something like this:

Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours
Deferred: Connection timed out with server.domain.com.
Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours Will keep trying until
message is 5 days old

Or do i have something configured wrong and it should already be doing
this?  I see the block in my config.xml that specifies the retry
attempts based RFC 2821.

Currently users are only receiving the bounce after the very last retry
attempt..  which is 5 days from when they sent the email.

Thanks for any assistance.

This is not supported now.

I'm working on full DSN support but I will not integrate it in James in 
this release (too much differences in the core).
