 I've got postfix/amavisd/clamav configured on my mailserver, but I am
 having trouble getting the notification emails to format properly. 

Virus and spam notifications are a bad idea.  Both types of email
forge the sender address, so notifications to the sender wind up going
to a third party that can't do anything about the problem.  Notices to
the intended recipient are simply a waste of bandwidth.

I know there are those who feel you should never discard mail, but in
this case, I'm fine with it.

 Lame reason, maybe... but there is reasonable logic behind me wanting
 to do this.

That's understandable, but it may well backfire on you.  I would be
just as irritated at receiving hundreds, possibly thousands of notices
that a virus wasn't delivered as I would at actually getting them.  A
once a day digest of stats on how many were blocked would work, but I
don't know of any OSS packages that can do that.

 I have listed in my rc.conf my ISP's Default Gateway, my IP, my subnet.

Try setting the default gateway to the internal ip address of your router.

My guess would be a misplaced comment in main.cf or master.cf.  Can
you post the relevant lines with a couple of lines of surrounding
context?
