You're right, but some users reject the idea that theyre email may be
deleted without warning. If you want to send warning, it's better to
notify the recipient than the 99,9% of time innocent sender.

Once the users see how many virus or virus notifications they recieve,
they quickly ask theyre admin to drop them all. So, the best thing to
do is to offer three choises : keep the detected virus, send a
notification or drop quietly.

The notification is be the best default. The users don't recieve the
virus and they are seeing that the admin take care of theyre mailboxes
:-)
