There have been various DoS type virus that send email with fictitious headers. When you bounce that type of SPAM then you are participating in the DoS. The bounce doesn't even reach the actual sender, it reaches the fictitious sender. Now that fictitious sender has the potential of being infected with the DoS virus and further participating in the DoS. So if your email server filters capture a virus, just delete it and don't bounce it, please.
