No warning came through with your previous mail. I presume that it was
included in an attachment which are always stripped by the YahooGroups
before the forwarding of messages. Your message therefore came through as
an 'empty message' and I can quite understand anybody being wary of it.
You might like to consider the fact that anybody who is anxious about not
getting a virus on his system will undoubtedly do these two things:
1. They will have anti-virus software installed
2. They will not open unsolicited attachments.
Your attachment, had it not been stripped by YahooGroups, would therefore
not have been read by many. And I suppose that you do realise that many
emails that purport to be warnings of dangerous viruses, do actually carry
the viruses that they warn against.
Virus warnings are almost always considered as SPAM and SPAM is a form of
virus passed on by human hand.
Nothing sarcastic here!
