  About the only way that company-x could force email bound for
company-y to come to one of its servers is by publishing a 
fraudulent MX record -- and I think that in turn should probably
require them to claim to be authoritative for company-y's
domain.
  Ideally, company-x should find it harder and harder to locate
an ISP that will continue to do business with them after a stunt
like that.

What is required to occur if company X (company-x.com) wants 
to activate an email auto-response for email sent to Joe Blow 
at joeblow@company-y.com and insure that email sent to this 
address is not read, forwarded, stored or archived? 

Also, would there be any security or compliance risks 
associated with doing this (if it is even technically possible)?
