Re: evolution virus ?

[erez]

well, the messages were sent by smtp before i understood whats happened. and the smtp server is out of my control ...

it looks like for some reson, evolution started resending my old mails to the original recepients.
so except for confusion, i do not think any harm was done.
( mistook inbox for outbox ???? - strange)

hi

my evolution got crazy and started to mail some of the emails from my
inbox to people on my adresbook.

before i could stop it it already sent hundreds of mails ....

Try making the mail server unavailable (using, e.g, /etc/hosts to resolve
the name of the smtp server to aa non-existing host) and let it run again

does anyone know on such a virus ???

There was nothing added to those messages, FWIW.

btw: system: linux redhat 8.0

run-away mail filter?

Keyboard typings?
