I have to say, I've seen it already quite a bit on some of the linuxchix mailing lists. Mostly it's getting caught by our "posters-only" rules, but we're also getting sent "You have a virus" auto-messages to the lists, the admins, and probably random posters as well. I haven't seen any make it through to the lists I'm on yet, but it's probably only a matter of time before someone's copy chooses a valid From: address. I hadn't gone to look up the details on it yet, but I figured it was forging From:'s when I saw a mail purportedly from an older address belonging to our coordinator, who lives in Australia, coming from an ISP which is local to me, halfway around the world in Canada. I haven't been tracing ISPs, but I'm guessing it's spread over the US by now. Thanks for the extra info, Chuq. I should probably make a similar notice available before I start getting complaints.
