Block NDRs of a DynamicDistributiongroup to sender

I have a dynamic distribution group which contain thousands of members, some members does not care of their mailboxes and once some one from higher management send email to this group then they get hundreds of NDRs regarding full mailbox issues.
So i decided to stop these NDRs to received to the sender a follow the following way to accomplish this task.

To check the current status of the group: 
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>get-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity "Abcgroup"| FL ReportToOriginatorEnabled

ReportToOriginatorEnabled : True

To apply the required changes on the group: 
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Set-dynamicDistributionGroup -Identity "abcgroup" -ReportToOriginatorEnabled $False

To confirm that the required changes applied.

[PS] C:\Windows\system32>get-DynamicDistributionGroup -Identity "abcgroup"| FL ReportToOriginatorEnabled

ReportToOriginatorEnabled : False
