I assume you mean anti-virus notification, not an NDR. The NDRs are
generated because the Trojan is using a list of common names for every
domain it picks up on. You can't disable NDRs, that would be bad
practice.

        Everyone on the list please, if you can, set your MTA's to not
send a anti-virus NDR to the sender of the virus, seaming the sender is
most likely spoofed it won't do too much good.

        In example if your using amavis-new set your
$final_virus_destiny to D_DISCARD.
