Just curious if anyone else is seeing mail.apache.org fail to receive

  Patched qmail to reject executable attachments
  Cleaned up a big mess in the queue.
  Mail should be active now, though the DDoS flood may delay
    legit messages from making their way onto mail.apache.org.

  Hurray!  There is a new email worm afoot flooding our systems.  I've
  taken down email until I can figure out a way to stave it off.
