That would be why I don't let in any .com, .exe through the mail system. There's a
whole list of extensions you probably should block.

I got two with attachment (document.exe and message.com), outlook
blocked it. But Trendmicro didn't detect it.

It's not a virus because nothing is attached and there are no obvious
links or other active content in the e-mail message. Therefore, nothing
triggers Norton AV. Also, the internet headers are stripped out,
probably because the message has been made to look like it came from
inside the organization.
If viruses can masquerade as internal messages, what's stopping
legitimate criminals?

Is your AV detecting this virus? If so what are you using?
