Hello, C. K.

KMail (the "official" email client for KDE), has a "bounce" option which
does just that.  I've also planned to put that option into a little email
client that I am writing atm.  Unfortunately, the bounce has to perfectly
appear as though it came from your ISP, **not** your email address.  This is
something that I haven't tackled quite yet, but I haven't really tried yet,
as I haven't gotten to that point.
