I guess the reason for the outbreak is that the latest datfile of
NAI (4149) does not detect this particular strain of the virus?
It was able to pass through a friend's postfix+uvscan box this
morning.  The same thing happened maybe with other servers using
NAI's scanner.

The quick fix of course was a one-liner postfix body_checks rule...
