Re: [JAVA3D] Virus problems

Personally I think attachments are useful in this type of forum. Especially when a jpg is worth a hundred lines of code ;-)   Can we not just block messages from the offending email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ?   This seems the best solution to me. It's likely he doesn't know he's affected and the virus is replying to all his incoming email.   josh >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/05/01 08:28AM >>> "Yazel, David J." wrote: > > The e-mail administrator here at work is a little peeved at me because of > the viruses coming from this list.  If this continues they are going to ask > me to un-subscribe from the list.  That will reduce my contributions to this > list to the evening hours. Easiest way is for the list admins to ban attachments to the list. They either get stripped or the email gets bounced completely. The listserv software that Sun is using for this list, it is just a one line config change (if it's the software I think they are using!). Coincidently that would also get rid of all attachments like images and large code chunks and that would make me very happy too :) As usual, hassle the list admins (easiest to find at archives.java.sun.com) or at least see if we can get one of the J3D team (maybe Micheal) to hassle the list admins.... -- Justin Couch                         http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ Freelance Java Consultant                  http://www.yumetech.com/ Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer                  http://www.j3d.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- "Humanism is dead.
