I explained at some length my position on this in a previous email. I have disabled replying to the "sender", but I think the argument has not necessarily come to the right conclusions. Some people are making a very complex issue into an over-simplification, because they do not know how they can block such warnings when they know they never send virus ridden emails.
Anyway, as far as I am concerned this discussion has come to an end. When a prominent person on this calls me a bastard, and sends me private threatening email that he will involve me in an expensive legal court cases if he gets a single message from my virus checker (legal nonsense of course, he would not have a cat's chance in hell)..and further threatens me that he can get me dumped by my ISP because he has lots of contact with Dutch ISP's (almost certainly a lie) then things have become pretty pathetic. This is a serious issue...but this is obviously not really the right place to discuss it I suppose. Yes, I was wrong about the reverse DNS lookup, I must have been thinking about something else. The only thing I would add is that the discussion has shown a lot of people cannot differentiate between spam mail and virus-infections. They seem to have them all jumbled up in their minds as the same thing. Anyway..back to qpopper. -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ]
