Must be a legal firm? Can't think of any other type of 'corporate email'
that would be run by idiots.
Their response:

Don't see any valid logic - only a lawyer could come with that sort of BS.
No SPAMmer is going to read an error message, so that only senders that
would annoy are ones getting invalid receipts [like yours].
