I'm running late catching up on my Declude lists today, so forgive me for
jumping in here - not only late but in the middle of the thread.

Twice today I have been sitting at local users machines for unrelated tasks,
and in both cases I noticed notifications in their local email inboxes
warning about inbound sobig messages. I didn't give it a lot of notice at
the time, I knew we got a zillion of them already. The problem is that I
have had "SKIPIFVIRUSNAMEHAS Sobig" in both recip.eml and sender.eml for a
long time now, long enough that several other entries are in there now under
the Sobig lines. Something's wacky, but I haven't had a spare moment to do
any log investigation yet.

The only thing that's unusual here is I was also seeing something that
others have mentioned: my f-prot is catching this and my mcafee was not, so
I was only getting hits using my Scanner2, and not my Scanner1. I can't
imagine what that might matter, but I do know that the "SKIPIF..." lines
ordinarily work without fail.

Ah, but that is why in the virus.cfg file, you put a line in like this:

FORGINGVIRUS    sobig

This way, the sender e-mail address is replaced with [Forged].
