if by "you" you mean your mail client, then your mailserver rejects message
from your mail client. Your mail client should display error message when
sending mail, not create a bounce.

so, you have two mail servers and the first sends message to another one
that rejects it?

Now it's extremely hard to understand what you are talking about when you
report your mail server to reject message from your mail server.

putting your mail address on any list won't help, you just create another
confusion.
