I discovered that Debian includes a file with their amavis-new package
advocating turning sender notification off:
/usr/share/doc/amavisd-new/README.policy-on-notifications.gz if you have
this package installed,
http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.policy-on-notifications for
everyone else.

It doesn't have any arguments that haven't been brought up here, save
that some anti-virus notifications bounce the virus back too!
