To stop getting double bounce messages-

[root@server /]# config setprop qmail DoubleBounceTo devnull
[root@server /]# signal-event email-update

If you really geeky You can check the database if you like...

[root@server /]# config show qmail
qmail=service
    DoubleBounceTo=devnull
    MaxMessageSize=15000000
    status=enabled

Expand only the doublebounceto template....

[root@server /]# expand-template /var/qmail/control/doublebounceto

Check /var/qmail/control/doublebounceto is set to devnull.....

[root@server /]# cat /var/qmail/control/doublebounceto
devnull

And restart qmail 'manually'....

[root@server /]# svc -t /service/qmail

To stop getting double bounce messages-

You shouldn't be getting any bounce messages with SME7, let alone double bounce messages (bounce messages which can't be delivered). If you are seeing double bounce messages, they are coming from your LAN, so you should investigate the source.
