It doesn't do this all the time. McAfee's site states it often changes
the second letter of the username. Since at least for me Magistr isn't
that a frequent virus I have notification turned on for it because
it's rarely that a altered e-mail is coming. Those few bounces I can
handle instead of just ignoring them all together since chances are
pretty good that some of the e-mails will have the correct e-mail
address and a notification will inform this user of their infection so
they can take care of it.
