If you have syntax errors in your email headers or some similar
problem with the content, we drop the message on the floor
and I personally get a bounce message indicating this.
We don't automate sending the notification to the sender
because most of the things triggering this are SPAM.
I didn't see those notifications this time so I either deleted
them or something else went wrong. Try sending them again.

I think one more type of mail that would be good to
automatically drop would be any mail that bcc's a list.
ie: if no list entry in the to: or cc: header, drop.
