Hello Pieter, I also get those virus emails by the dozen - yet not a single via the Chipdir-List or Fatcity at all.
I do not doubt that the infected computer belongs to a member of this list, since it obviouslz forges the from address. However, it also seems to send those virusses directly to your address and not to the list... So my guess would be that it is some member of the list who had personal email contact with you so that your address ended up in a different part of his Outlook address book - why else would I be spared?
