Forwarding non-delivery reports to external alias in Exchange 2007

We have a problem setting up a email redirect for a mailing list provider.

The mailing list provider is using their server to send out marketing emails, using "newsletter@ourcompany.com" as a sender address. In order to track down non-existent addresses etc, they want us to redirect all messages coming to "newsletter@ourcompany.com" to "tracking-email@maillistprovder.com". I've done it using the "Mail contact" functionality in Exchange 2007, but the problem is that NDRs are not forwarded. Out-of-office notifications, test emails are all forwarded out fine, it's just non-delivery reports that are not. When I check message tracking, it only shows a "RECEIVE" line and nothing else happens, so I suspect that Exchange is processing the message internally instead of forwarding it on. Is there a way to make Exchange forward those reports as well?

Have you at some point disabled NDRs on your hub transport, most likely to eliminate scatterback spam?
