Actually, I remember when the switchboard server sends the message to your computer successfully, it also sends ACK to the sender (it is not your computer that sends ACK. The switchboard server sends ACK as long as it successfully send the message regardless of whether your computer actually receives the message or not). Unless you're able to control the switchboard server to send an NAK, there probably doesn't exist a protocol-wise hack to accomplish this.

I would want this to be done to trick some of my contacts too
