Upon first glance, it would seem you might be able to do this by
setting all the bounce notifications On and setting
bounce_score_threshold to 1.0 before sending the invitations, but this
won't work because the received bounces (at least the recognized ones)
will be for addresses which aren't yet member addresses, so they will
be ignored.

I think you're stuck with MTA logs or with setting and alias like

listname-bounces: listname-owner

temporarily until the bounces have been received.
