An interesting thing I have noticed recently is that vsnl servers are
scanning outgoing emails for virus affected attachement and deleting them. I
have got recently, quiet a few messages, which have passed through vsnl
(either inwards or outwards), where the main virus affected attachment is
deleted, converted into a simple txt file.

Not what you would expect from vsnl, would you ?
