Bounced Email Testing

This example sends an email to bounce@chilkatsoft.com. Chilkat has setup a mailbox (bounce@chilkatsoft.com) that has a message limit of 2. The mailbox is already full, so any messages sent to it will generate an automated mailbox-full bounce reply. Chilkat is providing this mailbox so you may test your bounce handling programs.
