Hello all,
Along the lines of the recent discussion of possible viruses, I am trying to understand whether a virus can be contained in the email header (as opposed to being in an attachment), and if so what threat such a virus can pose. I would also like to mention to users of Outlook that one can view the so-called Internet header by right-clicking on the message, and choosing Options. This opens a dialogue with a window containing the header. I assume this works in Outlook Express as well. Good day, Mike -----Original Message----- From: Christian Mondrup [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Montag, 6.

As a linux user I hasten to underline that this is not something I *know* but rather something that I presume. You might do the TeX-Music list a favour by publically asking whether virus can in fact appear as part of the very mail body. The hopefull Stefan Svensson wil share his knowledge with all of us.
