As the message says, a message containing Klez was bounced to you. Type "klez" into Google to read all about it. The short version is that it's a Windows Outlook virus that mails itself out to every address it can find in its host's address book, using as a return address another such address (thus the bounces go to you). So this indicates someone with both your and the recipient's address in his address book has the virus. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
