What tools are available to generate bounce messages in order to test a bounce management tool? We want to test invalid addresses but we will like to test other error status codes.

It sounds to me like you want an SMTP server that generates such errors in a reliable fashion.

Lots of open-source SMTP servers exist and are available for modification. One option is Apache James, a modular open-source Java SMTP server.

A much more trivial test server could simply open port 25 for receiving mails, and deliver canned errors depending on configuration (or incoming email).
