well I learned something today that I am embarrassed to admit.my
mailscanner setup was sending replies to all the friggin Sobig mails
that got caught be f-prot since I had not added Sobig to the Silent
Viruses list in MailScanner.conf

I have peaked at the logs over the last few days but it did not dawn on
me that I was contributing to the flood of messages related to this
scourge. 

Those of you running Mailscanner might want to check this if you have
not already.  I would not have seen this if the worm had not used my
address as both the sender and the recipent.  Sort of rfreaked me out
when I got the mail message from my own server that I had sent a virus
(from evolution?)
