In my case I insisted that my ISP disable their spam filter and virus "protection" on my mail server since there was a high risk that it would trash messages that I wanted to receive. I also paid extra to move my web site from a Windows sever to a Unix server. This whole virus business reminds me of the old elephant joke. Two men were travelling to London by train. Every 10 minutes one man would tear out a page from his newspaper, roll it into a ball, and hurl it out of the window. After an hour of this, his fellow passenger could contain himself no longer. "Why do you keep doing that?" he asked. "To keep the elephants away". "But there are no elephants in England!" "Yes, effective isn't it?" :-) Martin Pickering (UK) ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
