I just called Steve and he hasn't even looked at FFL in a long time, much
less posted to it.

Huh.  Macs aren't vulnerable, according to Symantec.

Well, *somebody* who posts here is infected.  Why would
it come from Steve, though?

I'll tell him, but he's on a Mac. I don't think he could get this virus.

The virus sent it; it's the Beagle mass-mailing worm.
It's probably gone to every email address the virus
can find on his computer.

Tell him he needs to do a virus scan on his computer
toot sweet, and update his virus protection once he's
cleaned things up.

The email address itself is legit.  Look at what's 
at the bottom of every post to FFL:

> > To subscribe, send a message to:

Steve may be infected; the virus was responsible for
sending the email as a post to FFL.  It has also
most likely opened ports on his computer allowing
remote access and compromised any virus protection
he may have been using (if it wasn't compromised
already).

What has? I went to that message and it was sent by Steve Briggs, who's a
friend of mine here in Fairfield. Although I doubt he sent it. I emailed him
to ask if he was even using that email address.

It's been used for virus sending before, and has probably be hijacked,
because he was out of town the last time a virus was sent.

This is about an email message Steve received and then
posted to Fairfield Life.  Are you saying you didn't
receive Steve's original post?

It's message 75851 on the Web site if you want to have

What he posted is almost certainly a phishing
or viral email.  

It isn't even in English:

"Your e-mail account will be disabled because of
improper using in next three days, if you are still
wishing to use it, please, resign your account
information.

"For details see the attach."

I hope he didn't open the attachment, or click
on any links in the body of the email or the
attachment, or, God forbid, reveal any of his
personal information.

Yahoo has an address to which to forward such
emails.  He should forward it to:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If possible, he should reveal the headers in his
email client before sending it.

What this is about, Steve, is that every so often
Yahoo decides that you're a spammer.  Someone has
probably spoofed your Yahoo userid as the source
of a hundred thousand or so spammessages.  Just
keep writing to them about it and they'll relent.
