The notifications on my site goes always to the "recipient". Because:

No notification at all is bad in case the mail is a 'false positive'.

Notification the sender is a very bad ideas, because all "From:" in the 
latest generation of viruses are fake adresses. It would hit the same 
person.

The recipient could easily filter the (short and harmless) virus 
notifications.

No, but it could be a false positive.

This would be a great idea.
