It is not possible with much reliability to send a response to the sender
because you seldom know who the sender is. Especially if this is something
you decide to do after you've dropped the original connection.

I get several such notifications each day and not only did I not send the
original messages, they didn't even originate on my systems. My address
was spoofed and they lost the only accurate bounce path available when they
accepted that message.
