I forgot to mention how we did it - we turned of ALL postmaster notified - it's the line:

Notify Local Postmaster = yes


change it to:

Notify Local Postmaster = no


Once changed, you'll need to restart mailscanner:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/mailscanner restart

To be fair - do you really need to know about ANY viruses inbound?  Alternatively, you can turn it off for a few weeks, then put it back.
