AFAIK,  this is not currently possible, as the .EML files apply to any
domain/user  that  is being scanned for viruses (with the exception of
the notify-local-recipients-only setting, but that doesn't apply here,
since  the list *is* a local recipient). Responsive guy that Scott is,
perhaps  this  kind  of  thing  will make its way into Declude at some
point.  I'd  guess  that  it would require more Registry access to the
Imail  configuration  than  Declude currently employs, which could add
some marginal overhead in big installations.

I  don't  see how this solves the problem of people posting viruses to
the  list--just  because  you're  a subscriber doesn't mean you aren't
inadvertently  propagating  due to Klez, et al. In fact, isn't being a
contributor  to  a list one sure indicator that you'd have the list in
your address book?

Password-protecting  and/or  moderating your lists would be effective,
though not much fun.

IMAILSRV does no such check, as you guessed already.
