From: "Keith Green" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Guys,
I keep getting a virus report for e-mails that I haven't sent.
(...)
The only reason I think that it might be coming from the EOS Mailing List is
because 'Tom', whoever he is, has an a1.nl e-mail address.
Needless to say, I haven't sent any e-mails to 'Tom', nor have I sent any
with a subject of 'Thanks', etc.


I don't suppose that our server could be infected, could it?
If anyone has any ideas, I would be extremely grateful.

My understanding is that these worms/viruses take email addresses from address books. This means it could run on any PC, that has got your email address and the recipient's email address in the address book. Unfortunately (for you) it has chosen to use your e-mail address to fake the sender.
(Of course there are many other ways for the worms to collect email addresses.)


The only thing you can do is just ignore it. BTW: I got many of those over time.

Regards
Thomas
