[Mimedefang] White paper on futility of replying to viruses?

[Kenneth Porter]

I seem to get a lot of automated replies from virus scanners responding to 
forged viruses with my address as the sender (typically lifted from a 
newsgroup posting). It would be nice if I could fire off a link to that 
postmaster pointing to an article explaining why auto-replies to a virus 
are a Bad Idea. Does anyone know of any good articles explaining this? (And 
is it an equally Bad Idea to auto-reply to such an auto-reply? ;) )
