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

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....
