What is really getting my shorts in knot are the idiots who can't set up their virus scanners correctly. There is no reason that they should be notifying senders of virii like Sobig. Those virii fake the sender address so the idiots are spamming some poor guy that didn't send anyone a virus. Also, if the idiots insist on notifying senders then should configure their scannesr NOT to notify list servers!!! If they don't know how to do this then just ask instead of spamming hundreds (thousands?) of people. There is one clown that keeps spamming this list about virii with a return id of [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you try to reply to that address it comes back as invalid!
