Subject: ScanMail Message: To Recipient virus found and action taken.


ScanMail for Microsoft Exchange has detected virus-infected attachment(s). 
Sender = [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Recipient(s) = [EMAIL PROTECTED];[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Subject = Re: Unix/Windows CR/LF Problems 
Scanning Time = 12/11/2001 06:48:31 
Action on virus found: 
The attachment commit_prep.pl matched file blocking settings. ScanMail has
Deleted it. 
Warning to recipient. ScanMail detected a virus in an email attachment. 

[Thornley, David] 
This is not called for.  The info-cvs list frequently has perl scripts sent
around,
and it is not reasonable to complain about it.  It is reasonable to delete
perl
scripts from incoming mail if that is your desire.  However, issuing email
in
HTML claiming to have found a virus is wrong and inconsiderate.

(BTW, for whomever decided on the wording "ScanMail detected a virus in an
email attachment", I'd suggest consulting a legal professional.  That looks
to
me like it could be taken to be libel.)
