If I understand your question correctly, you are sometimes sending an
after-the-fact bounce message based upon the return-path in at least
some situations where you detect a spam or virus (as opposed to
responding with an error code response during the SMTP session)?
If my understanding is correct, you should never ever ever ever ever
ever ever send those sort of NDR's. Please google "backscatter".
