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.
AV NDR's = Anti-Virus Notifications. The majority of the time you get a
AV notification you basically getting a NDR from the server describing
why it was unable to deliver the message, in this case because of a
virus.
Turning off SMTP/MTA NDR's != GOOD.
