Custom NDRs possible?

We have a few domains we route mail for at our organization. Is there a way to use IronPort to send NDRs from the domain the user's primary SMTP address is part of?

For example, JoeUser@CompanyX.com is expecting an email. The customer sends an email to JillUser@CompanyX.com by mistake.

The NDR goes to the customer from Admin@CompanyABC123.com because that is how our Exchange environment is named.

So we're looking for IronPort to try and intercept these and send the NDRs from Admin@CompanyX.com of CompanyABC123.com, whichever is appropriate.

In the case you described, the message for an invalid recipient is first accepted by the Ironport appliance. Ironport then tries to forward this message to the Exchange server, which would reject it during smtp conversation(at the 'rcpt to' command). Next, Ironport generates a bounce and forwards it to the sender.

You may configure the header 'From' address that Ironport uses when it generates a bounce messages via CLI command 'addressconfig'.

Ok, so it can be done. I'm very new to IronPort products, so if you have an example, that'd help me to be able to work with it.
