Silently block viruses will not work

Hi!
I'we tested Fluffy 1.5.2 with or without 'Silently block
viruses' checkbox checked and not checked. And
haven't noticed any difference between those options. -
both of 'em will send notifications about blocking to
sender and recipient.
Today, when almoist all email viruses (and spam) were
sent from faked from addresseses, there is no need to
send notification mail about viruses (or spam as well).
Maybe it'll be better idea to configure local 'notification'
address in Fluffy, where to send notification about
blocked viruses. IMHO

one thing to note:
flufffy send the notice to the sending IP instead of the
Hello Domain like most virus checkers.
This notifies the IP that they are send a Virus, So if the
computer is compromised they are getting a notice, instead
of the Fake Sender.
I have found this to significantly reduce the amount of
Virus and Spam email I recieve.
